Going purely by Bram Stoker’s work (and of course there are tons of people who insist he modified it from earlier myths, but all of THOSE seem to have vampires bearing much more of a resemblance to succubi then our understanding of the undead), Dracula could walk during the day, but other vampires seemed not to be able to.
The way this seems to be justified, usually, is that Dracula’s exceptional *power* let him walk about during the day, while lesser vampires could not. Alternately, it’s not that the sun is lethal to the undead, just highly unpleasant.
As a current pop-media iteration of the Count puts it, “To me, the sun isn’t some great enemy. I just *hate it*.”
Heh, the tip jar. XD
I wonder if that was MC Vlad walking by?
Love the “wash out” effect! 🙂
Wasn’t that the club owner / vampire?
In the sun?
Aw, c’mon… that whole “vampires coming out only at night” thing has long been exposed as a myth.
Huh
Where do you get that kind of intel?
yea..
we all know they sparkle..
*finishes throwing up*
sorry, couldn’t resist it..
comic’s name kinda asks for it though >.>
So who’s sitting there with Jen, is now what I have to wonder.
That looks like Zorro….?
