American Virgin #7 - Vertigo


Ok, I'm not exactly sure where to start with this book. As I've said, I really am not sure I'm going to keep buying it. It's really not holding my interest. There's a lot of characters, Adam, Cyndi, Deacon, Claudia, Mel, Moon, Mamie and Alex. And they're really a messed up bunch of people. Adam is the main character. He's the leader of his own religion, a religion built on celibacy and virginity. But he's in anguish because his fiance' was killed, while she was doing some missionary work over in Africa. She was beheaded and it was telecast over the internet. Mamie is Adam's mother, and Cyndi is his sister. Moon is his business manager / agent. Mel is the guy Adam got hooked up with to help him find his fiance' murderer, and Claudia used to be his girlfriend. Now they just hang out, and she's interested in Cyndi. Deacon is Adam's best friend. And Alex is a pre-op transvestite that he met at his last conference. Are you up to speed now? Me neither. All I know is that this issue, Mel finds out that the murderer is going to be at this gay club, so Adam gets dressed up and goes in trying to meet him. He finds him, but spends most of his time talking to Alex. On the final splash page though, the guy asks Adam if he wants to party.
