Ian Somerhalder Shirtless Pictures The Vampire Diaries

When The Vampire Diaries comes back from its little break on March 15, it has a special treat: a flashback! It's called "1912" — the year we're flashing to — and we get to see Damon as a devastatingly handsome man in the early 20th century. It only gets better from there, as we see Stefan and Elena getting closer again, while Rebekah and Damon play a little, um, rough. Check out this crop of pics to hold you over until the series returns.
