Not a Werewolf...And No, that wasn't Jesus lol. "The Confessor" is a Vampire and a Superhero from Image Comic's "Astro City" by Kurt Busiek. I have never actually read the comic, I remember when it came out, I thought is was kind of stupid for a Vampire to have a cross logo on his chest. But then I found out that He is a priest who (as a superhero) bears the cross on his chest to keep his vampiric tendencies in check. The cross is also supposed to cause him intense pain, so I pictured him having it forever scarred or emblazoned on his chest underneath his robes and capes. Like I said, I haven't read the comic, but I think the Graphic Novel titled "Confession" is basically the complete collected tales, and I'm looking for a copy...

Speaking of Vampires...here's a sneak peek of my next drawing which is not quite finished yet, but since I have gotten such nice feedback on this thread I thought I would share it. I am toying around with the idea of doing a "Vampire History" portfolio, I was thinking of doing pics of many of the major players in Vampire lore including characters from literature and cinema. Does that sound like a good idea? Anyways, this is Count Graf Orlok, perhaps more commonly recognized as "Nosferatu" from the 1922 silent film.

Remember, this is not finished yet...

Man for being unfinished that looks pretty sweet. I like the nod to Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff on the grave markers.

Awesome great work maelstrom I aspire to be as great as you one day

Man for being unfinished that looks pretty sweet. I like the nod to Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff on the grave markers.

lol yeah I seen that and thought of a great fun fact .....bella and boris hated one another due to the fact that lugosi passed on the role of frankenstein when he was approached about it saying it was a role of nothing but brutish grunting and when he seen who great it turned out after karloff did the roll he was mad and so began the rivalry ,and hey what about "the man of a million faces" lon chaney ? WHY DIDNT HE GET A GRAVE.......wait you said its unfinished ...there is still time lol
