Daughters Of Darkness vol.1
(1996 - SQP (Sal Quartuccio Publications))

64 full-page drawings, and four paintings on both outer & inner covers. One of the drawings is turned sideways because of its length. Most of the girls here are blood-suckers, though a few are instead victims, as well as other female night-beasts. This is a particularly diverse bunch, ranging from dark and extremely realistic all the way to a handful that are comic and nearly cartoonish. There is a lot of nudity, and indeed many of the subjects are playing the role of seductress, but none of the images are so graphic as to depict adult themes. I don't keep the book put away (though it's not being handed to children when they walk in the door either . . .). The artists gathered, all 'well-presented', are: Quiqui Alcatena, Alonso, Sebastià Boada, Mitch Byrd (3), Capdevila, Jose Casanovas (2), Carlos DeMiguel (3), Randy Elliott, Escandell, Steve Fastner (with Rich Larson) (3), Fauve, Jim Fern (2), Blas Gallego (5), Brad Gorby (2), Daerick Gross (2), Josep Gual (2), Ovi Hondru, Maren, J.L. Marin (5), Esteban Maroto (3), Monte Moore (2), Mark Morales (2), Leandro Ng, Pena, Robb Phipps, Ron Randall (2), Bob Rhett, Luis M. Roca (3), Romero (2), Bil Ruth, Arantza Sestoya (3), Cesar Spadari (2), Jose Torres (2), Enrique Villagran, John Watkins-Chow and James Webb.
