430 - FCF: American Vampire

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">What’s more American than ruthless bastards sucking dry the poor, hardworking souls that make this country what it is--all in the name of progress? We’re not</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">just</span></em> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">talking about capitalism here, we’re also talking about the bloodthirsty monsters at the heart of Scott Snyder and Rafael Albuquerque’s</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">American Vampire</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">. For this month’s</span> <strong>Four-Color Flashback</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">, Paul and Arlo sink their fangs into the first two volumes of Snyder and Albuquerque’s (with an assist from Stephen King) decades-spanning Vertigo series. The boys discuss how Snyder charts the path of American history through three distinct time periods; the seriously cool vampire taxonomy; Albuquerque’s ghastly, gorgeous art; the way King cusses; and, yes, what the book says about capitalist conquest. Plus, Paul chills with three very different Netflix projects:</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Moxie</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">,</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Ginny & Georgia</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">, and</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Behind Her Eyes</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">NEXT:</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">Michael Holland, post-production supervisor on</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">American Horror Story</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">and ABC’s</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">For Life</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, joins us to discuss Disney+’s first MCU series,</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">WandaVision</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></span></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><span style= "font-s
