Mignola and Golden;s epic tale of vampire-hunting across a grim alternate Europe where the First World War ground to a halt due to an outbreak of mysterious plague and, also, vampires. For a vampire-hunting story it's impressively dour, not a quip in sight, its hero is deeply tragic and somewhat wretched, its monsters are nasty, and an obsessed priest of the new Inquisiton is the most annoying character I've encountered in ages.
