Anne Rice's Interview With The Vampire Graphic Novel Complete

by Cynthy J. Wood

In twelve parts, this series adapted Anne Rice's classic of modern horror. Interview with the Vampire stars the vampire Lestat, eldest of all the undead. For hundreds of years he has lurked about in the shadows of our world-ever since he himself felt the bite of vampiric fangs in his own neck so long ago. Now the time has come to tell the remarkable story of his life-and unlife. It's a story of power, betrayal, remorse, and the love of the damned. And in telling his story to the hapless interviewer, he sheds light not only on his own existence, but on an entire underworld where love and pain do not stop with death.

Foi maravilhoso voltar ao mundo de Anne Rice, e penso que Cynthy J. Wood fez um trabalho maravilhoso ao adaptar o romance para uma graphic novel. Então é simples: não há desculpa para não entrarem no mundo das Vampires Chronicles! Têm os livros em inglês, em português, em graphic novels, os filmes são fantásticos também, os rumores da série que há anos aparecem na net deixam-se sempre ansiosa… não consigo ficar indiferente a uma das melhores séries que eu alguma vez li.
Voltar a Interview with the Vampire é indescritível. Voltar a viver as mesmas cenas, reencontrar o trágico Louis, ver o monstro que Lestat é aos seus olhos e saber que Lestat é muito mais do que isso, continuar a sentir aquele ódiozinho pela Claudia… Só gostava de poder partilhar da imortalidade destas personagens magníficas para poder reler este livros (e a restante série) para todo o sempre.
Apesar da arte não ser propriamente a que mais me atrai no que toca a graphic novels, acabei por gostar bastante. O aspecto visual desta adaptação está muito bem conseguido, o que ajudou ao ambiente tenebroso e negro que paira sobre Louis e a sua mania de ser triste. Embora nem sempre a tenha achado coerente, sinceramente não me incomodou, e por várias vezes fiquei parada simplesmente a absorver os detalhes de algumas das ilustrações.
Se gostam das temáticas de vampiros, por favor, por favor, leiam Anne Rice. Não há nada melhor que a Rainha dos Vampiros 🖤
Só tenho pena que a série não tenha sido adaptada na íntegra!

What can be said about a work that, in its original version, probably did for the vampire myth what Bram Stoker’s Dracula did a century earlier? Perhaps nothing that hasn’t already been said — except that this graphic novel reminds us why Interview With The Vampire endures as a grand, tragic fresco of immortality, guilt, and desire.
Cynthy J. Wood’s adaptation captures the tormented introspection of Louis and the intoxicating charisma of Lestat with remarkable fidelity. The dialogue retains Rice’s lyrical melancholy, while Joseph Phillips’ paintings elevate the story into something almost operatic — lush, shadowed, and deeply human even in its darkest moments.
This isn’t just a retelling; it’s a visual meditation on what it means to be condemned to eternity, beautifully rendered and emotionally gripping. A must for any admirer of Anne Rice, or for anyone who believes that the vampire’s curse is, above all, the burden of consciousness itself.

Picked the first in the series up at random in an antique and second hand book store. I'm yet to read the book or watch the film but definitely even more intrigued to watch/read now. I enjoyed this as a super quick read and liked the art style. I'm not hooked enough to go searching for the other 11 issues but if I by chance come across them I'd happily read them.

I'm not sure the choice to do watercolour all the way was a good one. It looks gorgeous with some panels, on which the artist obviously spent time, but makes unreadable the ones done quickly. Won't say anything bad about the text, it's literally book quotes.

Aunque no soy tan fan del estilo de los dibujantes, ciertamente amé la adaptación y espero pronto encontrar alguna otra.
