Is this a storyboard from True Blood?
Sookeeeeeehh~ 🧛‍♂️
Affirmative consent enforced by vampirism
I don't know, can you?
I, too, saw that other comic.
Blow a nut in that gut, then drink some wine and eat some chicken!
Would the foetus be undead and count as a still birth?
Someone call the republicans, we have an abortion in progress.
Wow, I didn’t know the words I’ve said were so spooky.
Context matters. đź¤
Is that actually a standard vampire rule? I honestly thought that was something Adventure Time made up.
Yes. If you read Dracula, Dr Van Hellsing explains all this and many other interesting things...
It is a very old thing, actually!
Yes, without permission it’s vampiric assault, a serious crime. Victims are coming forward more and more since the #Vtoo movement
If you were bitten against your will, you can’t become a vampire unless you want to.
the body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down?
Tide goes in, tide goes out. You can't explain that!
I don't know if you can call anything to do with fictional beings "standard". All of it is subject to interpretation and the whims of the storyteller.
That said, while it tends to be absent from modern lore, it's a very old rule as the other commenter said.
Depends on what you consider modern. It's still there in The Lost Boys.
Such a great bad movie. The dude playing the sax steals the show
All part of the narrative that a vampire will seduce you, because without you inviting it in then it can’t.
Adventure Time just riffs on it
Can you use garlic as a contraceptive in this case?
Stuff it up in there like you’re making a roast.

Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!
About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.
Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness
Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!
