A while back, LJ:shayheyred nominated Vassalord for Yuletide with this description: "because what's not to love about a gay vampire and an angsty vampire cyborg with priestly intentions? This is a brand new passion of mine, because it's cracky and dangerous and very cool indeed."

That was enough to put it on my "check it out someday list." I was browsing at a local store today, though, and came across the back cover copy: "Find out as the devilish duo go up against a childlike vampire princess, a mysterious branch of the Unitarian Church...and each other."

The main reason I didn't buy it then and there is because I'm pretty sure I saw a copy at a secondhand store last week. But "someday" definitely just became "soon." :-)

Ooh, I read Vassalord and really liked it! It is indeed cracky and dangerous and cool. The relationship between the vampire and the cyborg is kind of sick and twisted in a mostly-humorous and partly-angsty sort of way, and there are hints of genuine caring between them, too. And tons of slashy subtext!

I was lucky enough to find a copy of volume 1 at the local library, and I don't really have space at home for more manga, so I was hoping they would continue it. But if they don't get volume 2 soon, I may just break down and start buying it. I really like the manga-ka's other series, Peacemaker, too.
