Requiem Chevalier Vampire by Pat Mills and Olivier Ledroit
Requiem Chevalier Vampire (French for Requiem Vampire Knight) is a Franco-British comic, published by Nickel Editions. It is translated in English and published by Heavy Metal in the USA. It is also translated in German and published in Germany by Kult Editions as Requiem Der Vampirritter.
The story is written by Pat Mills (best known for his work on Sláine, Charley’s War and ABC Warriors) and the pictures are drawn by Olivier Ledroit (early volumes of the Black Moon Chronicles).
The comic is characterized by its extreme violence and each issue is more daring and is darker than the previous one, sadomasochism is common in this comic and there are several scenes of violent sex. There is a lot of humour in this comic, although it is full of cynicism. About one edition is released a year, a total of 15 issues is expected. Because of the financial weaknesses of Nickel issues had to be released every 8 months at first, with Requiem’s successes more time is given to the artists to work.
