About The Comic Book Series:

Lia Scott Price’s Vampire Guardian Angels is a creator-owned comic book series written and created by Horror Author Lia Scott Price. In the series, Guardian Angels from Heaven have become Vampires who kill people who pray for help to them, and both humans and “good” angels have to work to stop them.

What are Vampire Guardian Angels?

When you pray to guardian angels, do you know what they are? What if they were a vicious new breed and hybrid of serial killer, angel and vampire who target those who pray for help to them? Because they are tired of protecting us and want to put us out of our misery, by eating, and enslaving us. Don’t pray to them.

Plot Synopsis

In the fourth issue, Resurrection: Afterlife, a resurrected but horribly disfigured Gabriel seeks revenge on Joseph, the little boy whose mysterious power sent him back to Heaven. Flashbacks tell the story of how Cameron accidentally killed Joseph's mother and how Joseph was bitten by Cameron and is not yet aware that he is a Vampire. A guilt-ridden Cameron and his former detective partner, Kirkland, work to protect a now-adult Joseph from Gabriel.

The Story

…Gabriel later finds and attacks Joseph in a nightclub, but is saved by an Earth Vampire named Catharina, who distracts Gabriel, and by Kirkland, who sacrifices his life to save Joseph from Gabriel. Catharina reveals to Joseph that she is a Vampire and that Joseph is also a Vampire, and that he is also a "legend" among the Vampires and Vampire Guardian Angels as a "Killer of Angels" because of his power to send Angels back to "the light". Gabriel later attacks Catharina but is saved by Cameron.

Cameron later meets Joseph back at Christina's grave and reveals that he accidentally killed Christina, turned Joseph into a Vampire, and begs for Joseph's forgiveness. He tells Joseph that he acted as Joseph's stepfather and protector since he fell to Earth and even though he became a Vampire, he still secretly watched over Joseph. Cameron also tells Joseph about Janos and his plans to take over Earth, and that Joseph had a choice: stop Janos and protect humans as Cameron was doing, or become a potential ruler of the Vampire Guardian Angels. Angered, Joseph's strange power of light that he used to send Gabriel back to Heaven comes back, and he tries to destroy Cameron with it, but sees a vision of his mother and stops.

Cameron tells Joseph that his power can stop Gabriel. Joseph and Cameron soon confront Gabriel. Using his growing power of light, Joseph once again manages to turn Gabriel into a ball of light, but Gabriel disappears, not ascending. Cameron, who sacrificed himself to save Joseph, is dying, and Joseph seems to have forgiven him. He turns Cameron into a ball of light and Cameron is allowed to ascend back to Heaven, saving his own life.

At the end of the story, Joseph finally bares his fangs, revealing himself to still be angry at Cameron, and he seems to make a choice between whose side he plans to be on. Although it is assumed that Joseph destroyed Gabriel, a pair of mysterious glowing eyes is seen in the darkness.

Plot Synopsis

The third issue, "Dominion", focuses on the origins of the Vampire Guardian Angels and their existence in the Bible. They were hidden by the Church, who fed sinners to them. An author discovers this secret through her research. The three vengeful angels, wanting dominion over man, go on a killing spree as they wait for the vampire invasion of Heaven and for the coming of their new leader. The Author, a Detective, and the Guardian Angel Cameron, now a Vampire, work to stop them.

Sneak Preview: Issue 3

The Story:

The author visits Detective Costa and tries to convince him that her dream has come true, and that the killings are caused by Vampire Guardian Angels. Meanwhile, the three Angels target their female victims, feeling entitled to doing so because they were denied what they consider pleasures of the ﬂesh, before killing and feeding on their victims.

Detective Costa gets an emergency call, and Ms. Price insists on going with him. As they get to where the latest victim is being attacked, Ms. Price gets kidnapped by Zeke. However, just as the Angels try to kill Detective Costa, the Guardian Angel Cameron appears and saves him. The three Angels take the author and disappear.

Cameron turns out to have become a Vampire and tells Costa who the three Vampire Guardian Angels are and what they want with Ms. Price. Cameron tells Costa that the Angels were sent to open a portal to let the Vampire Guardian Angels in from Heaven so they can take over Earth, and that the author will be an “offering”. Cameron ﬁghts the three Angels as Costa frees Ms. Price, who tells him about what the Vampire Guardian Angels consider a “prophecy”, that they will be led by a new leader, Janos, who will bring all the Vampire Guardian Angels from Heaven to enslave humans, and that the portal is the only way in. Cameron reveals to Costa that Vampire Guardian Angels can only be killed by a Guardian Angel who was evil but who turned back to good. Together, they manage to kill Zeke, Anthony, and Jude. The three angels burn and become balls of light, just like Gabriel did, but Cameron stops their ascent back to Heaven by throwing himself into the dying portal, blocking the portal as it implodes and preventing their resurrection in Heaven. Cameron disappears, presumably killed by the dying portal.

Revenant (Issue 2)
Price/Setter/Hammontree

Plot Synopsis

The second issue, "Revenant", introduces and follows the Vampire Guardian Angels' future leader, Janos, who does not realize he is a reincarnated Vampire Guardian Angel, the son of Gregory, an ancient Vampire Guardian Angel, and the Vampire Countess Elizabeth Bathory. Janos is stalked by Gregory who tries to convince his son that his destiny is to become the leader of the Vampire Guardian Angels^TM.

Sneak Preview: Issue 2

The Story:

..The bodies are examined by Detectives Graham and Murdock, who ﬁnd that the victims have been seduced, tied up, and then drained of blood.

Gregory ﬁnally decides it is time to reveal himself to Janos at the Church and tell him who he is and about his destiny. Gregory tries to convince Janos of who he is and what he was meant to do, that Janos is a Vampire Guardian Angel and the chosen leader because of his royal heritage from the Countess, and that is why he hears prayers, because he is a Guardian Angel as well. Janos does not believe him and simply continues to believe that he is going crazy, until he goes home and bites Leah..

Leah throws Janos out, and as Janos ﬁnds refuge on campus, he hears a conversation between “Earth Vampires” disguised as students who talk about him and the plans of Vampire Guardian Angels to take over Earth and humans. As Janos, hiding on campus, tries to ﬁgure out what is real and what isnʼt, Gregory, disappointed in Janos, decides on “plan B” and decides to create another heir, another leader to take Janosʼs place. He kidnaps Leah and claims her as his own, impregnating her.

Janos eventually seems to accept who he is and his fate and goes on a killing spree, feeding off his victims, whose bodies the detectives ﬁnd in the basement of Janosʼs apartment. Janos has also killed the psychiatrist, Dr. Lieberman, and because he was a patient as well, the detectives identify Janos as the killer. Janos awakens at the Brooklyn bridge, realizing he has wings and can ﬂy. However, Janos decides he will not do what Gregory wants and refuses to honor his destiny as leader of the Vampire Guardian Angels as his father Gregory wanted. Gregory ﬁnds Janos on the bridge and tells him he no longer needs him and will get rid of him. But Janos is saved by the detectives, who shoot Gregory. Gregory falls off the bridge and disappears.

Hours later, it is revealed that Janos is actually conﬁned in a mental hospital, and that he is suffering from delusions that he is a Vampire, and that a “Vampire Guardian Angel” was after him. Janos is visited by Leah, and it is further revealed that the recent events were nightmares dreamt by Leah. Leah begs an apparently still-alive Dr. Lieberman to help Janos get better. Distraught, Leah returns home to the apartment, where Gregory, very much alive, surprises and kidnaps her.

Sneak Preview: Issue 1, the Prequel

The Story:

(Prequel: The Beginning: This is the prequel where Guardian Angels are first introduced as Serial Killers and have not yet become Vampires.)

...But Gabriel still stalks Christina, and returns to attack her, but Cameron saves her. Angered, Gabriel stalks another victim in the church, Tammi, and has her kill herself in front of the priest who stopped him.

As Gabriel leaves, he passes a basin ﬁlled with holy water, he sees his reﬂection. Gabriel has a ﬂashback of him being sent as part of a child army during the crusades to ﬁght. As a child he prayed for his Guardian Angel to save him, but he ended up being killed and became an Angel himself. Gabriel reveals that he is ﬁlled with rage because no one saved him, and he resents having to spend eternity being forced to save humans. He destroys some angel statues in the Church.

Cameron visits Kirkland who is drinking heavily, still blaming himself for Gabrielʼs victimsʼ deaths. Cameron tries to convince Kirkland that Gabriel is responsible, not him. Then Cameron goes back to the church and ﬁnds Christina. They end up falling for each other. Suddenly, Christina gets a call from her panicked babysitter, who tells her a man is after Joseph. Gabriel makes Karen, the babysitter, kill herself. But Cameron appears and stops Gabriel, who says he will come back for Joseph. Gabriel returns to the Church, prompting the priest to call for help. Cameron responds, and takes Christina and Joseph and returns to the Church to look for Gabriel. He tells Christina and Joseph to stay in the car. But he hears a scream and goes back to the car, ﬁnding a black feather and both Christina and Joseph gone.

Cameron ﬁnds Gabriel has taken Joseph hostage. Gabriel confronts Cameron, telling him why he is killing humans, because he does not want to “play therapist” anymore.

But a hiding Earth Vampire grabs a hold of Gabriel, and rises with him to Heaven, biting Gabriel, turning him and the rest of the angels in Heaven into Vampires.
