Holy Water, Batman! *
What would happen if vampires were submerged in Holy Water? Well, this is what Team ThreeOneFive thinks, brought to you in ASTOUNDING fashion by Danilo Guida! This is a moment I’ve been talking about the prospects of for a while, but now – FINALLY – The Daredevils STRIKE BACK! Underestimate the stalwart crew of the mighty Custer only at your own peril…
And with that in mind, take another gander at the look on the faces of the vamps in panel one. Seriously, that is going to be the look on your face when you see the page that just arrived in my inbox from Danilo this very week! Of course, it’ll be a few weeks before it hits the blotter – them’s the breaks – but I will confirm that the vampire BUTT-KICKING most certainly DID NOT peak with this week’s page. Big, fun stuff is coming. It’s a good time to be a Daredeviler.
Though, the Captain seems to think it all might be too little too late…
Be here NEXT WEEK and find out just why the Captain ain’t so optimistic! WHO is liable to screw up the Daredevils’ roll before it’s even started? In just 7 days the FUN continues, so make sure to RSS, Like, or Follow!
I am also happy to report that you guys are continuing to vote like crazy at Top Web Comics! As I type this we are currently at another record setting ranking of #121, just a stone’s throw from the front page. At this point though, it’ll still take a whole lot of clicking for us to make the front page, but if this week’s page proves anything…never count out a miracle!
Oh, and Star Trek: The Next Generation fans (like myself) will find this week’s Sunday Bonus Lunch extra tasty.
Anyways, till next week!

* Full disclosure, I stole this line from commenter, John Waltrip. It was too good to pass up. Thanks!
O.O Sweet merciful sea vampire soup! The facial expressions of the sea vamps is so priceless it alone could balance the worlds economy if put into Polaroids! But the real question is….sea vampire holy water soup…is that a chowder or a stew?
Credit where credit is due…Panel 0ne, with the Vamps all recoiling in fear, was all Danilo’s idea, and in retrospect that reaction panel makes the explosion panel work SO much better.

*But in need of a comfy chair and popcorn (for the movie in my head).
I’m glad, after all this time, that we can still leave you speechless, T. Gatto!
That was awesome! Do it again.
Thanks, crazyman!
More awesome stuff is coming, and SOON!
I thought that line looked familiar. Glad I could contribute in some small way. Thank YOU for doing such an awesome webcomic!
No, man, THANK YOU for reading and sharing your thoughts, we appreciate it more than you know.
Someone actually did something similar to this at a VtM LARP at Marcon one year, though it was the hotel swimming pool that the Hunter/priest consecrated, after hearing some of the vampires talking about the LARP openly while swimming. He went and got a LARP judge, then proceeded to bless the pool. Got all of them in the pool except 1, that had true faith.
Welcome aboard, Basara549!
This has got to be just about the geekiest comment we’ve ever gotten, and by that I mean it’s freakin’ GREAT!
I’m glad you are digging the Daredevils, and thanks for sharing your thoughts.
“Broonnggg”.
The sound of a submarine’s pressure hull ringing like a bell?
I do wonder just which order the good father belongs to.
I suspect one of the more militant ones.
Cestus Dei, perhaps?
Yeah, I like your explanation of the “Broonnggg” better than ours, which was that the water turning Holy made the sound of a church bell ringing.
Also, if you Google “Father O’Flaherty” you might just find some surprising info about the Custer’s Chaplain.
Thanks, David!
Nice cake!
Ah…one of the elusive Sunday Bonus Lunch readers in the wild!
Quick, snap a photo, he is literally one of a dozen-or-so on the entire planet. HA!
The last panel always reminds me of Major Kong’s little monologue from “Dr. Strangelove”…
Major T. J. “King” Kong: Well, boys, we got three engines out, we got more holes in us than a horse trader’s mule, the radio is gone, we’re leaking fuel and if we was flying any lower why we’d need sleigh bells on this thing… but we got one little budge on them Rooskies. At this height why they might harpoon us but they dang sure ain’t gonna spot us on no radar screen!
You know, you might be on to something. I love Dr. Strangelove and actually re-watched it not long ago…
Now you’ve got me thinking that maybe a little of Kong’s speech subliminally worked it’s way into the Captain’s log.
Great comment, crazyman!
