The art as it was first colored for me by Allen Freeman. I used it this way in one of my previous Last Kiss gags. Click image to enlarge.
Prepare to be amazed (and maybe a little grossed out.) Mike Pascale is back with more horror-themed Last Kiss comics for Halloween.
As in past years, Mike has taken some old Last Kiss art and revamped it to include monsters. Unlike past years, though, I didn’t write any of the jokes. Mike dreamed up all four gags himself.
And these gags are killer good!
(Or killer bad if you’re squeamish about gore.)
Below is the original art from First Kiss #20 (1961.)

↓ TranscriptSCENE: Woman scolding a werewolf boyfriend. The werewolf has bloody lips.
WOMAN: I said meet my parents, not eat them!

We wrap up our three-part Halloween zombie fest with—I think—the funniest of the bunch. As well as the bloodiest.
Credit for the gag and the gore go to monster-maker Mike Pascale. Thanks, Mike.

Happy Halloween, everybody. And look out for the walking dead—especially if they’re cartoonists!
