First look (I think) at the cover for American Vampire #1

Since Vertigo’s announcement late Sunday there’s been a lot of coverage in the comics and mainstream press about American Vampire, the upcoming monthly series whose first arc is co-written by none other than Stephen King.

But while we’ve seen several pieces of concept art by Rafael Albuquerque, I believe this is our first look at his cover for Issue 1, which debuts in March 2010. The art accompanies a brief Q&A in USA Today with writer Scott Snyder, who discusses the comic’s development, King’s involvement, and what he likes about Albuquerque’s art.
