Drew, here is my one and only attempt at writing Halloween Man. Took me almost a week to come up with something that works for me. Figured I’d use the Superfucks character you helped inspire through your cowardly challenge that I lived up to and made into a hit comic the likes of which the online world had yet to see. It’s also part of my ongoing attempt to make comics like music. Heavily inspired by “No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature” by the Guess Who. I did make sure to keep it more surface than subtext, though. Hopefully it will work out. (Oh, and forgive the fact that my characters come across as fantastic and yours a little idiotic. Can’t help that fact. Of course, I see this more as MY half of a crossover than THE crossover.)

Panel 1: We open on a bedroom that’s been covered with candles. The mood is romantic. The sheets are satin. The candles are scented and provide the only light in the room. On the bed is a woman in a sexy teddy. This is the infamous Popular Girl. Her current look is sultry with long brown hair that’s wavy. She looks like she should be in some black and white film. In the doorway, wearing just a pair of boxers is Doc Sigil, her husband. He’s a little pudgier than when we last saw him, but otherwise, he looks the same. The captions are his work diary. This is official superhero business after all.

Caption: Doc Sigil Work Diary Day 2034.

Panel 2: He enters the room fully.

Doc Sigil: You ready?

Panel 3: Popular Girl edges towards him a little.

Popular Girl: Uh huh.

Panel 4: They’re both at the edge of the bed. He’s standing, she’s kneeling. They’re about to kiss.

Doc Sigil: Rock and roll.

Panel 1: They kiss.

Caption: I can hear the silent footsteps of the dead all around us.

Panel 2: Behind them, we can see various shadows given by things that aren’t there. They look like the shadows of people, but there are no people besides the pair.

Caption: Something is terribly wrong in this city.

Panel 3: He’s kissing her neck.

Caption: Luckily, some real heroes happen to be in town.

Panel 4: He moves to the other side of her neck.

Caption: Some heroes with experience in dealing with this shit.

Panel 5: Popular Girl’s eyes go wide as she sees the other shadows. He’s worked his way down a little lower.

Popular Girl: Mmm, baby?

Doc Sigil: Yeah?

Popular Girl: We’re not alone.

Doc Sigil: We will be by the time we’re done.

Panel 6: A shot from behind Doc Sigil. She’s fallen down onto her back and his head is between her legs.

Caption: Professionals.

Panel 1: A side view that focuses on Doc Sigil as he eats her out.

Caption: This is just basic stuff really.

Panel 2: We move up her body a little. Same side view.

Caption: We’ve handled far, far worse. That’s why I’m bothering with a little foreplay.

Panel 3: We moved up some more.

Caption: These ghosts aren’t doing any harm really. Just scaring people a bit.

Panel 4: We go up some more. She’s cupping her breasts and arching her back a little.

Caption: But, we cannot have that and so . . .

Panel 5: We move up a bit.

Caption: Time to go back to ghosty land, you fuckers.

Panel 6: And then we get to her head. She biting her lip.

Caption: And she’s cumming.

Panel 1: Splash page. Above view of Popular Girl having an orgasm while Doc Sigil performs oral sex on her.

Popular Girl: OH! OH! UH! OH! UH! OH! OH! OH! UHHHHH!

Panel 1: We see Doc Sigil climbing up onto her.

Caption: I don’t know what it is about her, but I don’t need sigils anymore.

Panel 2: And he’s thrusting into her, not wasting time.

Doc Sigil: AH!

Panel 3: And they kiss while having sex.

Caption: I used to practice my magic using symbols of my own device called sigils.

Panel 4: A side view of them having sex.

Panel 5: Close-up of his face. He’s getting close.

Caption: Eventually, I didn’t need the sigils anymore.

Panel 6: He’s right there . . .

Caption: I am a magical being.

Panel 1: Splash page. Above view of him cumming inside of her.

Caption: (In this panel, I want the picture of a sigil of some sort.)

Doc Sigil: UHHHHH!

Panel 1: He’s resting on her, both catching their breath.

Doc Sigil: Huh . . . hh . . . uh . . . huh . . .

Popular Girl: Uh . . . hh . . . huh . . .

Panel 2: He lifts his head.

Popular Girl: Did it work?

Panel 3: He looks and sees no shadows in the room.

Doc Sigil: Looks like.

Panel 4: They kiss.

Panel 5: They look at each other.

Doc Sigil: Orgasm magic.

Popular Girl: The best kind.

Panel 6: Pull back, so we’re looking into their room from outside of the hotel they’re at. We can see still them. It’s like we’re just out on the ledge or something.

Caption: You’re welcome, Solar City.

Popular Girl: Wanna go get some pie?

Panel 1: This page has three panels. The first and third are of equal size. The second is really the one that split them across the page. It isn’t very high because it just contains the credits. The top one is a shot of the hotel Doc Sigil and Popular Girl are staying in. It’s a posh, upscale kind of place. They’re near the top. In the background, we can see a full moon.

Panel 3: This is a shot of a Solar City street. This is the level Halloween Man operates on. We just have cars and shit driving down the street, you know?

Title: The Haunting Of Solar City

Text: Halloween Man created by Drew Edwards

Panel 1: Solomon and Lucy are walking down the street. Lucy has some sort of tracking device, which they’re using to track the source of the paranormal activity causing the ghosts. Solomon is dressed in his typical black jeans, orange shirt and leather jacket, along with his shovel in hand. Lucy is dressed more practically, as seen in “The Tomb Of Captain Evil.” Sexy and all, but not some frilly dress that seems so stupid to wear. Captions in this half are regular.

Caption: EARLIER THAT EVENING . . .

Lucy: *SIGH* FOR THE LAST TIME, SOLOMON . . .

Panel 2: They’re standing outside of an entrance to the subway.

Lucy: YES, I’M ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE.

Panel 3: Solomon rolls his eyes.

Solomon: WHAT IS THE OBSESSION WITH EVIL-DOERS AND SUBWAYS?

Lucy: QUICK GETAWAYS AT A REASONABLE PRICE?

Panel 4: They descend the stairs.

Panel 5: Solomon is obviously in a bad mood. The subway station is abandoned.

Lucy: BOO-HOO!

Panel 6: Solomon bangs the side of his fist against a wall.

Solomon: WHEN I FIND OUT WHO’S BEHIND THIS . . .

SFX: THUD!

Panel 1: Lucy is standing at the edge of the tunnel.

Lucy: I THINK WE NEED TO GO THIS WAY . . .

Panel 2: Solomon looks down it.

Solomon: AT LEAST THERE’S LIGHTING IN THESE NEW TUNNELS.

Panel 3: They’re walking down the tunnel, which has lights every fifteen feet or so.

Solomon: HOW MUCH FURTHER IS IT?

Lucy: HARD TO SAY . . .

Panel 4: Solomon stops.

Solomon: DO YOU HEAR SOMETHING?

Lucy: LIKE A RUMBLING?

Solomon: YEAH . . .

Panel 5: He turns around and a train is around twenty feet behind them.

Solomon: OH HELL!

Panel 1: Solomon grabs onto Lucy.

Solomon: COME ON!

Panel 2: And he jumps towards the wall, carrying Lucy.

Panel 3: They land and the train speeds by.

Solomon: THAT WAS CLOSE!

Lucy: YEAH! BUT WHY COULDN’T WE HEAR IT SOONER?

Panel 4: The train is gone and they’re both confused.

Solomon: NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WHERE DID IT GO?

Panel 5: We see a shadowy figure come up behind them.

Lucy: SOMETHING VERY PECULIAR IS HAPPENING HERE . . .

Panel 6: And they’re both hit with some sort of stun ray.

Solomon: UHN!

Lucy: OHH!

Panel 7: Black panel.

Panel 1: Black panel.

Panel 2: Fuzzy panel that has panel 3’s picture, but is fuzzy as Solomon wakes up.

Panel 3: From Solomon’s point of view. We see what looks to be a human, but is dressed in a black sheet to look like a ghost, sort of. This is the Ghost Grandmaster.

Grandmaster: WAKEY, WAKEY, MR. HITCH!

Panel 4: They’re in some room that’s been carved out of the rock in the subway. Solomon and Lucy are both tied up, but Solomon is hooked up to some machine. All around them, also are the ghostly shadows. Lucy is still unconscious.

Solomon: WHO ARE YOU?

Grandmaster: I, MY DEAR SIR, AM THE GHOST GRANDMASTER!

Panel 5: The Grandmaster points a finger at Solomon’s face.

Grandmaster: WITH LOOKS LIKE YOURS, YOU SHOULDN’T BRING UP PARENTS!

Panel 6: The Grandmaster backs off a little.

Grandmaster: I’VE ALREADY GOT WHAT I WANT . . . YOU!

Solomon: HOW’S THAT?

Panel 7: The Grandmaster begins his rant.

Panel 8: Solomon looks pissed off.

Solomon: I AM GOING TO MAKE YOU HURT . . . A LOT.

Panel 1: The Grandmaster keeps on talking.

Caption: I can hear the silent footsteps of the dead all around us.

Panel 2: He walks over to the control panel connected to Solomon’s chair.

Caption: Something is terribly wrong in this city.

Panel 3: Suddenly, all of the ghost shadows are gone.

Grandmaster: WHAT?????

Grandmaster: WHERE DID MY GHOSTS GO?

Caption: Luckily, some real heroes happen to be in town.

Panel 4: Solomon gives a little grin.

Solomon: I GUESS THAT’S MY CUE . . .

Caption: Some heroes with experience in dealing with this shit.

Panel 5: He stands up, breaking out of the chair.

Solomon: ARGH!

Panel 6: He picks up his shovel.

Panel 7: He walks towards the Grandmaster, who is back up, panicking.

Grandmaster: IT . . . IT WAS A J-JOKE! I’D N-NEVER . . .

Solomon: OH, I BELIEVE YOU, I REALLY DO . . .

Grandmaster: YOU . . . YOU DO?

Panel 1: Splash page. Solomon hits the Grandmaster with an uppercut from his shovel.

Solomon: THE HELL I DO!

Caption: Professionals.

Panel 1: Solomon and Lucy are standing on the street as the Grandmaster is being put into a police car. His mask is off and it’s just some random guy.

Solomon: EVERY FULL MOON . . .

Lucy: WHO IS HE?

Panel 2: We see the guy close up as he sits in the back of the cruiser. His jaw is swollen.

Solomon (OP): JUST SOME DORK WHO DECIDED TO BRING BACK DEAD PEOPLE FOR FUN.

Panel 3: The cop car pulls away and they begin to walk home.

Solomon: WHY DO YOU THINK I ONLY HIT HIM ONCE?

Panel 4: Large panel. Solomon and Lucy are walking down the sidewalk one way, while Doc Sigil and Popular Girl are walking the other way.

Caption: THE END!
