Unfortunately the realities of Life still take their toll even on the unliving.

To be honest, Jason being turned into a vampire wouldn't be much different than normal as he'd most likely need coffee rather than blood to survive. In fact he might even need to drink less!

Revived Rivalries 🦇

Quackers Halloween Special - Part Three

Quackers comic - Revived Rivalries part 1

Panel 1: Tom the moose and Jason the duck are stood in the ballroom of the creepy castle they entered into last episode. A dark, bat-like figure silently flies past them in the background. Jason, sensing something, turns nervously. "What was that?!" he exclaims.

Panel 2: A fearsome bat face appears in close up, its mouth open wide exposing long dagger like teeth. The bat's eyes are glowing red and it hisses menacingly.

Panel 3: Jason leaps backwards in surprise, crying out in terror. The anthropomorphic bat - dressed in a stylish grey suit and waistcoat - strikes a predatory pose and speaks with a commanding voice. "Come to me my succulent morsels and prepare to feed me!"
Tom, looking perplexed, mutters "I didn't know we were expected to bring snacks to this party..."

Continued in part two.

Quackers comic - Revived Rivalries part 2.

Panel 1: Jason the duck has a sudden realisation. "Wait a minute, it's..."

Panel 2: "You!" both Jason and the bat shout in unison, pointing to one another in recognition.

Panel 3: Angrily Jason shakes his fist toward the bat. "You're that vampire we defeated several years ago!" He shouts.
"Vampire?" Tom asks, confused.
The vampire menacingly fires back at Jason in his broken accent, "And you're de meddlesome pests who beset me vith sunlight and banished me from my own home! I had hoped to never again lay eyes upon either of you."
[NB refer back to the Halloween Special of 2019 at www.quackerscomic.com for past dealings]

Panel 4: "Really?" Jason asks. "You moved all of a half-dozen streets away. Meeting again was kinda inevitable."
"Haff you seen de state of da housing market lately?" The bat replies wearily. "Who can afford to move far?"
"Fair point." concedes Jason.

Those spindly arms of his aren't good at flapping, just flailing.

Just Victor the crocogator catching up with his froggy friend, Frogbert.

Digital painting of Victor the Friendly Crocogator leaning against a log by the river. A grassy bank, bushes and trees fill out the background. His small friend, Frogbert the frog is sitting on Victor’s arm. He excitedly regales Victor with tales of his latest goings on. Victor listens on happily.

The curse of the artist!

Digital Quack @digitalquack.bsky.social · 6d

Thank you! I wasn’t sure how well they turned out after staring at them for so long as I made them. I’m glad they look good 😊
The chandelier in particular took some effort, lol

Enter The Entrées.

Quackers Comic Halloween Special 2

Panel 1: Tom and Jason walk up the stairway to the entrance of Bleakwood Castle.
“Right, let’s head on in!” said Tom with a smile.
“Oh sure,” Jason replies, “Let’s walk straight into the dark imposing castle… What could possibly go wrong?”

Panel 2: Strolling nonchalantly toward the big wooden door of the entrance Tom responds to Jason.
“Let’s see, you could plummet to your doom through rotting floorboards, or perhaps fall prey to maniac’s fiendish booby-trap. Or maybe an evil extra-dimensional Eldritch abomination could appear and devour your soul…”
“I didn’t need a list!” cries Jason, pulling the hood of his hoodie over his eyes.

Panel 3: Tom holds the door open for Jason as they enter into the castle. Jason looks thoroughly miserable and is hugging himself.
Tom calls out, “Hello? Anyone around? We’re here for the party!”

Panel 4: Suddenly a heavily accented voice booms out around the spacious chandelier-lit room. It echoes and seems to come from everywhere at once. “Vell, vell… Two tasty looking snacks have villingly wandered into my abode?”
Tom looks surprised at the voice, while Jason starts to panic. The voice continues. “My, dis vill be a most enjoyable evening indeed!”

Panel 5: Tom looks amazed and looks about the darkened, shadow filled room. “Woah! Such a cool effect! How do you think they made their voice appear from everywhere like that?”
Jason furrows his brown in thought. “Wait a minute…” he says.

Panel 6: Jason turns to Tom and says “I think I recognise that weird accent.”
Excited, Tom comments, “Ooh, maybe we have a famous guest star?”
“With our comic’s lousy budget?” says Jason. “Not likely!”

A local self described "Centrist" politician who fled to America and Meta after losing his seat soon after the Brexit vote. Apparently he's now leaving Meta after shamelessly shilling for their AI crap for years. It would be somewhat ironic if he's lost the position to their AI.
