DayBlack

More about the book

DayBlack is the story of Merce, a former slave who was bitten by a vampire in the cotton fields. Four hundred years later, he works as a tattoo artist in the small town of DayBlack. The town has a sky so dense with pollution that the sun is nowhere to be seen, allowing Merce to move about freely, night or day. This second volume in the series continues to follow Merce as he learns the hard way to never be caught with his pants down, and his nightmares become flesh as loved ones he thought long dead suddenly appear at his doorstep--looking for blood. The dynamic black and white depictions are cleverly detailed with cross hatching, shadow lines, and skillful use of negative space.
