Happy Veteran’s Day. And a heartfelt thanks to everyone who has served.
My thanks to my friend Donald Flowers who encouraged me to add some missing details to the U.S. Air Force uniform in today’s comic. And a special thank you to my pal Robert Zailo who added those details to the art. We’ll be seeing more of Robert’s work in the future.

It wouldn’t be Halloween without a Last Kiss collaboration with my pal Mike Pascale. This one and the one tomorrow are re-runs of two of the best zombie comics we’ve done together. But there’s a new zombie gag coming from Mike in a little over a week—just before the election!
The first page of the first issue of the FIRST KISS comic book—drawn in 1957 by my hero Dick Giordano.
Transcript:
SCENE: A zombie girl prepares to kiss (or maybe eat) a young man.
MAN (thinking): She’ll eat my brains…but first I’ll get to Second Base!
1957 art by Dick Giordano in FIRST KISS #1.

Instead of the usual three comics a week, I’m running comics everyday through Halloween. Why? Why not!
This time and tomorrow: more Halloween photo-comic fun with photographer Allen Freeman and model Felina Vie!
(In addition to being a magazine cover model, Felina is also a Last Kiss t-shirt model!)
Transcript:
SCENE: A woman (played by model Felina Vie) is behind the bars of a jail/prison cell.
WOMAN: I was framed! My date killed himself! Then he buried himself…in my cellar!

I love Halloween. The candy is tasty. The kids are cute. And the costumes are funky fun. But, most of all, I love that I get to write some wacky Halloween gags!
This Halloween, I’ve once again dialogued numerous horror-themed photos shot by my buddy—Allen Freeman.
For many years, Allen was my main Last Kiss colorist. But in recent years, the poor guy has made his living photographing beautiful women—such as the lovely Felina Vie above.
If Felina looks familiar, it might be because she’s a frequent magazine cover model. More importantly, of course, she’s also a Last Kiss t-shirt model!
Felina will be back in some even wilder shots next week. Don’t miss ’em. I think Allen and I will be serving up some real treats!
Transcript:
Scene: Beautiful Felina Vie poses with two human skulls.
FELINA: I started Halloween early…to get a head!
