Undying Love: The Beloved Vampire Revenge Series Finally Gets a Conclusion

[VUBot]

Undying Love is easily one of the more memorable vampire comics to come along in the past couple of decades, with the series garnering praise from everyone from The Walking Dead's Robert Kirkman to Hellboy's Mike Mignola. Unfortunately, the series never received the conclusion it deserved. That's finally changing, though, as creators Tomm Coker and Daniel Freedman work to wrap up this vampire revenge thriller at long last.

Coker and Freedman have turned to Kickstarter to release a new hardcover collection of Undying Love, collecting the original four issues of the series on its 15th anniversary. The campaign will also be used to fund the completion of the remaining four issues.

IGN can exclusively debut a new preview of the Undying Love hardcover. Check it out in the slideshow gallery below:


Here's the official summary for Undying Love:

UNDYING LOVE: 'Not Dead Yet' is a tale of horror and action, blending vampire mythology with Chinese folklore, set in modern-day Hong Kong.

Ex-soldier John Sargent has fallen for a beautiful Chinese woman named Mei. The only thing keeping the star-crossed lovers apart: she is a vampire. To free Mei from the curse, Sargent sets out to destroy the vampire who made her. The only problem: Mei was turned by one of the most powerful vampires in history...

This Remastered, Giant-Sized Hardcover Edition celebrates the fifteen-year anniversary of UNDYING LOVE’s original release, collecting the critically acclaimed story from creators Tomm Coker (Black Monday Murders, Daredevil Noir) and Daniel Freedman (Birdking, Kali, Witcher: Blood Stone) in this format for the first time.

Optional extras in the Kickstarter campaign include a slipcase hardcover, a sketchbook, and sketch art from Coker. You can check out the Undying Love campaign now.
