Creature catalogs Navs’ epic quarter-century run, from being a Minnesotan misfit to becoming the Vertical Vampire. Vert can’t die when you’re undead.

Three decades of destruction smashed into six minutes. Big ups to everyone who’s chipped in or got broke off under the bridge. Fuel the stoke and build your own.
