Vampire variants

A three by three grid of small frames shows a series of vampire-based pun costumes. From top left to bottom right: the basic vampire, the vampirate, a person with fangs wearing a beret and smoking named Vam-Pierre, a vampire holding a lighter: Vam-pyromaniac, a vampire piñata (vam-piñata) with a blindfolded kid whacking at it with a stick, a vam-pilgrim wearing the ridiculous pilgrim hat, Mr. Vam-Peanut (an anthropomorphic peanut with top hat, monocle, and cane, plus of course the vampire fangs), Vam-Pac Man, and a Vam-pineapple.

Add fangs and make a bad pun. Now you have a whole new costume.

Still not gonna

One person visits another who is lying propped up in a hospital bed. The visitor has a cheerful yellow ballon printed with the words "Get well soon". The patient holds a blue balloon that says simply "No."

I'm sick in all the usual ways plus an extra-miserable bonus way, so here's a thematically appropriate rerun from two years ago to the day.

P.S. tomorrow is the 12th anniversary of CrustaceanSingles. Hooray dot dot dot question mark?

Resentment

Person 1, pointing angrily: I resent you for being so hard to dislike. Person 2, smiling: And that's fine with me!

Another Rerun Monday. Am I too tired to draw a new thing today? Yes, but also I wanted to give recent readers a little taste of how much worse I used to be at drawing these things.

Happy spider day

A stick figure stands in a doorway, looking around at a number of large, friendly spiders on the walls and floor, and asks, "Are there usually do many spiders all over?" One of the spiders says, "No, it's a special occasion."

"Well, happy...spider...day."

(It's a Rerun Monday instead of a Remake Monday. I just didn't think I could do better than 2014's sloppy ballpoint and scribbly spiders.)

Lobsterman learns about people

A stick figure tells Lobsterman (who is an anthropomorphic lobster person with gigantic claws and a horrifying maw), "It's what's on the inside that counts." Lobsterman reflects, "All the people I've opened up were pretty much the same once I got past the skin."

A single tear

"You mean we're just going to leave it there?" said the xenobiologist.

"Unless you have some extra fuel you've been keeping to yourself, we can't afford to take garbage back with us to Earth. Propulsion doesn't come cheap," the commander replied, at least half of her attention simultaneously devoted to something else.

"But the ecosystem—"

"What ecosystem? Rocks and dust? Listen, if it makes you feel any better, someday they'll have the technology to take care of the trash. It's the future's problem."
