Description
It's almost Halloween! And since I rarely draw Vampiric Minority comics these days, I always try to get one in around this time. Once vampires become less lame (thanks, Stephanie Meyers), I'll probably start this strip up with a little more regularity.But yeah! Halloween!

I'm curious how they would prey on Trick-or-Treaters with pumpkins on their heads. Seems difficult.

Well, they drink blood with straws, so it's not TOO far-fetched.

Your vampires aren't lame. Please don't stop on Stephanie Meyers' account. Damn it! Another reason to hate those stupid. sparkly vampires!

It's not that I don't like them, I just can't get excited about vampires at the moment. And yeah, it's totally Stephanie Meyer's fault.

it's a very large possibility vampires will never again be less lame...at least until someone ruins Cthulhu or something...

No one better ruin Cthulhu, or there will be hell to pay.

Yours are already not lame due to a distinct lack of roll-on glitter

Well, that's something, I guess.

Chauncy's pumpkin looks suitably shocked. That's good forward planning

Almost like he anticipated it.

So are they going to light it up with a candle?

Sure, why not.

Yay! I missed these guys!
Also, it would feel really odd to wear an actual pumpkin on your head. It'd be all damp and squishy.
...it sounds like fun.

I'm sure those pumpkins were suitably prepared.

Oh vampires. How drained of awesomeness you now are. I think zombies stole all their mojo. Christopher Lee, where are you when we need you?

I blame Joss Whedon. Angel was the first popular gloomy/romantic vampire, and now they're all that way.

Oh come on! Anne Rice predates Joss Whedon rather significantly, and most of her long-haired, foppish, lace-wearing vampires kind of sucked. Still, there was at least a certain edge to them. Whedon certainly started the pathetic teen take. Sigh.

I think all classic vampires were kind of foppish. Whedon made them the love interest of teenaged girls.
Don't get me wrong, I love Whedon's vampires. But at some point in her life, Stephanie Meyer was sitting around watching reruns of Buffy season two and thinking, "You know what? I can probably make this teenaged vampire love affair really, really lame. And also profitable." And then she made them sparkle, because everything's better with glitter.

The pumpkins even EMOTE. That's gold. Pure Comedic Pumpkin-gold.
Is the codpiece taken off for the Pumpkin, or just the pumpkin placed on top of the codpiece?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, there's a pair of faeries living in the codpiece, so the pumpkin is probably just on top of it.

I thought he might have given them a Halloween Vacation.

Ha. As long as jack-o'-lantern doesn't have to live in there with the codpiece fairies.

I'm sure the faeries will give him a place to chill on their couch.
