Reviews:

"In Unicorn: Vampire Hunter, Caleb Palmquist delivers a tale that is joyful, witty, and a bit heart-wrenching. Daryl Toh's artwork is a charming blend of vibrant characters and fun background details, and the titular unicorn makes one of the best entrances in comics this year. Also, five words for you in these troubling times: 'puppies that never grow old.' Not to be missed!" -Brian Shirmer, Fair Lady (Image)
  "Take all the grace of The Last Unicorn and shove it through the heart of a vampire. Fast paced, with art that tells the story beautifully. A comic that hooks you fast, with room to expand. Why we love indie comics." -Miles Greb, Puc the Artist (Scout)
