Part of it, anyway. While Tarot and raven are away fighting gingerbread zombies , Jon takes a couple of the ghost children from his cemetery out for trick-or-treating.
When Babs met Lois Lane

From Gail's run on BoP comes one of my favorite Lois showings in a non-Superman book.

I sent the mods a message a while back asking about the community legality of posting practice inks. To clarify, I have been studying the art of comic inking for a while, and seriously applying myself to improving my skills over the last year (to the point where I have a gig w/ an independent publisher, huzzah!).
All the pencils I have been using for practice have been found on the internet, and are being used for the sole purpose of developing and showing off my 'skills', such as they are, as an inker. The original artist will of course be credited any time that I use their pencils as well as including an image of their original pencils. This would have been done in any case, because it's the bloody decent thing to do, but props to the S_D mod team for making that a requirement. It really shows (IMHO) that the people running our community care about comics, and it's not just a place to read comics for free.
Wall of text aside, below the cut there are images of Vampirella that I inked about a year ago, and a Hobgoblin piece that I did about 2 weeks ago. Both are, I feel, in the spirit of Halloween. To wrap, I include an image of Dracula by Jae Lee, to keep the post legal, and because I love the image.

Thor vs. Dracula

Just under the wire for Halloween (my time), here's Thor vs. Dracula. 6 pages from Thor #332 and 7 from Thor #333.

The original story was one of the highpoints of the Silver Age, FANTASTIC FOUR# 57. It provided most of the plot for the second Fantastic Four movie, as well. But it was not until NOT BRAND ECCH# 1 in 1967 that Stan Lee and Jack Kirby let us in on the real events behind the legends.
