This is Abner VanSlyk! I'm pretty bad at hiding upcoming characters, and it makes me feel like I'm about to pop so I decided I'd let this one out.
He was originally designed to be in a completely different comic but ended up seeming to fit for this one. I had to redesign him a little but I like it, and now he's the little push that Conrad needs to want to be a better vampire.
He is, in essence, similar to Hanna in that he deals with paranormal oddities, however unlike Hanna, he eliminates them all instead of any sort of general problem solving. Also, he's a lot better at it. And while the mask and goggles seem to be worn for looks, it's really because he can't stand any sort of bodily fluid touching him at any time, be it sweat, spit, or yanno. Anything else. BLOOD. Since that comes out of people too.
He's horrendously obssessive compulsive, and it may be his greatest weakness if one were able to exploit it. His greatess weakness may be Doc Worth then because there's a bit of a mysophobia mixed in his neurosis as well, but that's a whole 'nother joke entirely.
He and vampire chick get to be in a line up of reoccurring 'badguys'.
Conrad's totally gonna get his ass whooped, for the record.
I'm looking forward to more of Mr VanSlyke in the comic! :3
OH CONRAD YOU FAIL BUT YOU ARE ADORKABLE AS A BAT
I find I tend to enjoy abusing the characters I love best, I used to feel bad about it...But then I discovered it's a fairly common trait XD
