Summary

Every nasty thought, evil impulse, or catty remark I ever choked down in my thirty-plus years has put on flesh, hopped on a Harley, and come alive in these pages...-ELAINE LEE

Meet Howler, Screech, Whipsnake, Skeeter and Mink--five dangerously alluring female vampires thundering down America's highways on Harleys, drunk on freedom and high on octane. After killing their male master, the Vamps set out on the open road in search of a new life. But Howler, their leader, is driven by a demon from her past...one that she must vanquish before she can truly enjoy the pleasure of an undead existence.

From Elaine Lee and William Simpson comes VAMPS: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION, presenting VAMPS #1-6 and the never before collected VAMPS: HOLLYWOOD & VEIN #1-6 and VAMPS: PUMPKIN TIME #1-3, along with an introduction and afterword by Elaine Lee and extensive bonus material.
