Summary
The war for Earth isn't beginning。。。 it's already here！ It's the heroes of the DC Universe against the undead in an epic fight for the very survival of the human race！
The Justice League has long protected Earth from all manner of foreign and alien invaders over the years， always keeping a vigilant eye to the skies for the next threat。 But what if the threat was already walking the Earth。。。hiding in plain sight。。。watching。。。waiting for their moment to strike。。。
A mysterious new vampire lord has already put a plan in motion to conquer the Earth， and his horde are hunting on the streets of Gotham。 Can Batman save his city--or will he succumb to the undead plague？
In the tradition of DCeased comes a terrifying new series from the twisted minds of James Tynion IV （Nice House on the Lake; Something is Killing the Children）， Matthew Rosenberg （The Joker Presents: A Puzzlebox; 4 Kids Walk Into A Bank; Hawkeye）， and Otto Schmidt （Green Arrow） that will tear the Justice League apart in their war with the undead！
This volume collects DC vs。 Vampires #1-6， the first half of this bloody battle。

Starts off as a slow burn with the fact that there is a new vampire king leaks out。 Then it's Batman and Green Arrow separately trying to figure out what heroes and villains have been turned into vampires。 The latter part of the book has some copouts to move some plot points。 Also， not great that they use some of the goofier vampire lore like vampires turning into bats。 Still this is a fun and mindless series。 Starts off as a slow burn with the fact that there is a new vampire king leaks out。 Then it's Batman and Green Arrow separately trying to figure out what heroes and villains have been turned into vampires。 The latter part of the book has some copouts to move some plot points。 Also， not great that they use some of the goofier vampire lore like vampires turning into bats。 Still this is a fun and mindless series。 。。。more

It's such a ridiculous concept to fight vampires， but I absolutely loved this。It definitely didn't feel much like a justice league comic as much as a detective comic， and you know what？ I'm here for Batman and that's exactly what I got， couldn't be happier。。。oh wait it's actually even better， it has -- almost-- all the bat-family members in it ！！！ 😭 I fucking adore them so much and their interactions is haliours and fantastic， when they do the vampire test and Damian passes all the tests and the It's such a ridiculous concept to fight vampires， but I absolutely loved this。It definitely didn't feel much like a justice league comic as much as a detective comic， and you know what？ I'm here for Batman and that's exactly what I got， couldn't be happier。。。oh wait it's actually even better， it has -- almost-- all the bat-family members in it ！！！ 😭 I fucking adore them so much and their interactions is haliours and fantastic， when they do the vampire test and Damian passes all the tests and they give him the glare lmao。 I freaking loved that Jason was included， every time he works with his family my heart just melts （ please more Jason with the family comics T~T ） and besides this I really loved his design and clothes （minus the hair， they did him dirty but beggers can't be choosers ）I really enjoyed the interaction between Batman and green arrow as well， fantastic as always。 （view spoiler）[okay that plot twist at the end though， omg I can't believe I was freaking right about nightwing being a vampire， and I can't freaking believe he killed Bruce *ouch* I loved the bat-family reaction tho， and Jason is freaking dead again （it's fine I didn't need my heart anyway）This is probably the first comic where Dick is the evil one and honestly he was great， tho I still can't buy it cuz come on the Golden boy？ Bad？ But this is another reality so I can get along with it。I don't know what is it， but I like it when the whole justice league gangs up on Batman （reminds me of injustice）。Also regarding flash: it seems with great powers comes quick deaths， he is always the biggest threat for the villains lol （hide spoiler）] 。。。more

Ending was very bad。 Had some potential， wasted it greatfully。

I was on the ground during the whole thing like it was plot twist on plot twist and all the crossovers and the way i （as usual） screamed when i saw constantine and THE BATFAM OMFG i was so happy to see all （or almost all） my favs and well vampires always got me hooked lmao， plus the artwork was insane and the colour palette as well like it was perfect in every way i litteraly couldnt expect better （i can， a john x dick crossover will make it even better）

I really liked this comic！ I loved the balance between the seriousness of the situation and the humour。 Somethings were definitely rushed and didn't make loads of sense， but I still enjoyed it！ Good plot twists throughout the series， and I still can't believed the ending of the first issue （human smoothie？？） I really liked this comic！ I loved the balance between the seriousness of the situation and the humour。 Somethings were definitely rushed and didn't make loads of sense， but I still enjoyed it！ Good plot twists throughout the series， and I still can't believed the ending of the first issue （human smoothie？？） 。。。more

It's a very fast paced， dramatic comic - mainly shock value with a few fun panels。 Overall an enjoyable comic， nothing to think too hard on。 I adore Otto Schmidt and they did a majority of the art throughout which probably contributes a lot to why I enjoyed it as much as I did。 I've seen a few of the one shot premises already so I'll probably read those as well as see where they go with volume 2。 It's a very fast paced， dramatic comic - mainly shock value with a few fun panels。 Overall an enjoyable comic， nothing to think too hard on。 I adore Otto Schmidt and they did a majority of the art throughout which probably contributes a lot to why I enjoyed it as much as I did。 I've seen a few of the one shot premises already so I'll probably read those as well as see where they go with volume 2。 。。。more

Didn't we just finish with every DC character being an anti life zombie？ Now it's a WHAT IF。。。 everyone was a vampire。 Nothing too inspired about the choices of who turns to bloodsucking。。。。 A little interesting who ends up leading the fang gang。 Didn't we just finish with every DC character being an anti life zombie？ Now it's a WHAT IF。。。 everyone was a vampire。 Nothing too inspired about the choices of who turns to bloodsucking。。。。 A little interesting who ends up leading the fang gang。 。。。more

Again， switching from individual issues to this volume cause simpler。 Honestly， could I tell you if this was good？ I genuinely don’t know。 All I know is I don’t particularly like vampires， I’m not particularly attracted to men covered in blood， but Vampire Nightwing is so fucking sexy 😭

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This is a great premise but， unlike DCeased， I have too many issues with the characterization。I think Bruce and Ollie are pretty in character， but it feels clear to me that Tynion and Rosenberg just didn't want to use Wonder Woman or Cassandra Cain。 I hate the way Diana is used in most events but this is up there with the worst。 She gets taken over and easily brainwashed。。。 as though the writers couldn't find an interesting thing to do with her。 We must keep the plot to the men。 Cassandra Cain i This is a great premise but， unlike DCeased， I have too many issues with the characterization。I think Bruce and Ollie are pretty in character， but it feels clear to me that Tynion and Rosenberg just didn't want to use Wonder Woman or Cassandra Cain。 I hate the way Diana is used in most events but this is up there with the worst。 She gets taken over and easily brainwashed。。。 as though the writers couldn't find an interesting thing to do with her。 We must keep the plot to the men。 Cassandra Cain is easily overtaken by Dick Grayson， despite being the best fighter in the batfamily， because we must leave the plot to the men。 Don't get me started on Babs。 *sighs*It's ridiculous。 I'd be interested if what transpired was Dick leading a turned Jason and Damian， but it wasn't clear if Damian was turned or not。 If he passed， I don't see myself picking up another issue of this because I just don't think the writing is strong enough for me to care。 。。。more

The best way I can describe this horrendous reading experience is by comparing it to another title。 So， unlike something like Archie vs。 Predator， which is an enjoyable teen slasher film in comic form using characters we know and love， DC vs。 Vampires is one of those shitty direct-to-DVD ones you’d only find at a Redbox。An elseworlds story that just completely lost me by the end， and the worst part is this book has another 6 fucking issues and god knows how many one-shots that you will not catch The best way I can describe this horrendous reading experience is by comparing it to another title。 So， unlike something like Archie vs。 Predator， which is an enjoyable teen slasher film in comic form using characters we know and love， DC vs。 Vampires is one of those shitty direct-to-DVD ones you’d only find at a Redbox。An elseworlds story that just completely lost me by the end， and the worst part is this book has another 6 fucking issues and god knows how many one-shots that you will not catch me reading anytime soon。 I don’t hate the concept of vampires， but I do hate the concept of once you turn into a vampire， you automatically become evil。 This series would be so much more interesting if that dumbass trope wasn’t the case here， like if the heroes who turned had to struggle with bloodthirst and the pain of killing friends and fellow heroes， but alas， it isn’t that at all。It’s Elseworlds so I can ignore out-of-character moments （I literally went into an entire spiel about continuity in my Human Target Vol。 1 review） but how some characters act and how certain events play out in here just don’t make any fucking sense no matter how you spin it。 For example （minor spoilers follow， so just skip to the next sentence or paragraph if you care for some reason）why would one， let alone someone who is supposed to be a genius in the DC universe， shove a mindreader who is invulnerable to vampires into a teleporter that zaps them into deep space instead of just making him read your mind there on the spot so he knows you aren’t a vampire。 Or how the hell a solar-powered hero even becomes a vampire in the first place， because how does that make any fucking sense on any level if Vampires can’t stand sunlight， just to name two of the many that annoyed me。 Also， the twist on who the Vampire King is wasn’t very satisfying at all and the explanation they give for how that character hid being a vampire from our heroes when they were seen in sunlight earlier was just pathetic。 The writers were just pulling dumbass explanations out of their asses at that point， which was a far cry from the well-thought-out explanation for the surprise League member who turned in issue 1。 After that one pretty cool moment， logic just goes out the fucking window and splatters on the pavement below。 I also found the deaths that followed said reveal （and most throughout the series for that matter now that I think about it） to be more funny than sad （which is what I assume they were supposed to be）， but whatfuckingever I can’t take superhero comics like this seriously anymore， they are so self-serious and stupid。So basically if you completely turn your brain off， you’ll maybe have fun with it。 If you leave just 1% on， you may start to notice the cracks in the story。 I wouldn’t recommend it unless you have a vampire fetish or NEED to see the DC Universe interacting with vampires。 I really didn’t like this， which disappointed me a ton as I honestly love fun & dumb comics， but this was more dumb than fun。 Maybe if you are like totally baked out of your mind this would be better？ Total shit book though and I’m probably just not reading Volume 2 unless it’s given to me or ends up in my library， because who fucking cares how this ends or what happens at this point？ Not me， that’s for sure。 And if you liked this， I’m really happy you found a book you can dig， but this just read like a super shitty version of DCeased with Vampires to me。 。。。more
