Comments: The art needs to be more focused.
We see a vampire attack go wrong but are left wondering why it did. Plus there is no fear instilled from this vampire or the fact it is attacking a human.
Dawkins aka the Artful Dodger and Bram hatch a plan to kill Mr. Fang. The plan well does not quite work as planned. The scenes seem as if they should be exciting or funny but are neither.
Hawkins is illustrated in one panel with hatred filling him. The close up of his face is well done. Fagin in one panel as well done closer up is illustrated nicely to show his vampiric side. For the most part though the art is not done clearly enough.
Mr. Fang invades Buckingham Palace. What is his plan? The Artful Dodger doges his way into the palace to stop him though. Can he stop Mr. Fang? Tune in next issue to find out?
