Vertigo has unveiled a preview of American Vampire: The Long Road to Hell #1, a one-shot co-written by Scott Snyder and Rafael Albuquerque, with art (naturally) by Albuquerque. It sports a variant cover by Tony Moore.

Arriving June 12, the special features the return of fan-favorite vampire hunter Travis Kidd (introduced in the series' "Death Race" arc) as he tracks a pair of newly turned young lovers -- the "Heartbreak Killers" -- across the American heartland.

“This is my first time writing for Vertigo and it’s a big honor," Albuquerque said in March. "Once it was decided we would go on hiatus, I approached Mark (our editor) with the idea of doing this special, so the fans could have a ‘taste of blood’ while waiting for the book's return. He liked the idea and we (Scott Snyder, Mark and I) began talking about it.”
