On the surface, Sammy Harkham's Blood of the Virgin is about an editor of b-movies in 1970s L.A. who has greater artistic aspirations, but it's also rich with unexpected explorations of character and narrative approaches, themes about the creative process, responsibility, and being an immigrant, and Harkham's best art and writing to date. Over a decade in the making, the book was finally released in a collected volume last year, and the work shows. Matt E. and Kumar can't help but heap praise on it.
