Finally! Bessie's mini-comic! Enjoy. :)
Peoples! I'm partially back! I'll post some random art, mini comics and Victorian strips until I defend my dissertation, because until then I'm BUSY (it will happen in March, if everything goes well). First strip of Year 8 is ready, but I won't start it without a buffer. No way. Enjoy the bonuses until then. :)

@Darius, they would answer "they are exceptions, that's why they are scary."

Also, I have a question. How would her guardian react to someone telling her, "Being a Geek doesn't make you weak. Look at the Van Helsings. A family of the most dangerous Vampire Hunters, who can strike fear into entire family's of Vampires at their mere mention, and every single member of their family are Geeky Nerds.

Actually, having read stuff on the DA, I have to say that this is treated well. Even if Vampires are supposed to be well read, you have told people on the DA that there are many vampires who think anything written in ...the last century or two? is the equivalent of "pulp fiction" and thus not worth their or anyone else's time. Bessie reads a wide range of things, from what 'traditional' vampires would be fine with, to things like Superman, and many things in between. Thus, she reads alot of what the more senior vampires think as 'pulp fiction', and thus look down upon. This actually makes me curious as to what they would think of her reading the Dresden Files.

@Spikes Oh, I forgot to mention that in the regular comics: the original Elizabeth Bathory is dead. The head of the Báthory clan is Dollinger Báthory (I guess I only mentioned it in Bram & Vlad's cardgame. Gee, one more strip to the list.) @Zeldomnyo, thanks! :)

Ladies aren't supposed to be nerds? Someone should tell the blood countess that (if they are brave enough). She was supposed to have been extremely intelligent if i'm remembering correctly.

good luck with your dissertation and welcome back. :)

Vampires should be well-read, but not too much. When she reads, Bessie spends time that she could spend being a spoiled little lady. Furthermore, ladies aren't supposed to be nerds. xD

Poor Bram. He has reached the age where his mind goes to places most teenagers do when a girl words things that way. ... Wait a darn second. Aren't vampires SUPPOSED to be well read? Why would her guardian be upset about that? She could spin it as her being, "up to date with modern trends so she can deal with humans easier."
