Here’s the latest (and goriest) of the amazing Mike Pascale‘s 2012 Halloween gags. As in years past, Mike has taken some of my old Last Kiss art and monster-fied it.
Two more Pascale horror comics to go between now and Halloween. Stay tooned for more funny chills!

Although the dialogue is brand new, I first used this art in 2010. That was the year Mike Pascale and I started doing Halloween comics together. Eventually we branched out into doing Thanksgiving, Christmas and holidays comics. But this art was in that first 2010 batch.
Happy 12th Creative Anniversary, Mike!
