Hi,
My name is Ed Power. I do a comic strip for King Features called 'My Cage'. It done by myself and artist Melissa DeJesus (who some of you may rember form TokyoPop's 'Sokora Refugees' .
Recently we created a second project: "Dracula vs. Santa"
It's currently in competion at Zuda Comics, right now until the end of March 2009. You can check it out here:
http://www.zudacomics.com/node/1074
Here's the description:
"Dracula wants the North Pole, with its six months of darkness, for his new home. Only one thing stands in his way: Santa Claus! Now it’s naughty versus nice for real as each man gathers their allies for all out war! And this time…it’s seasonal!"
It's really funny has beautiful art, a hot young Mrs. Claus (pg 3), an elf-version/spoof of Nick Fury (pg 4), and more cute things dying then…well, I don’t really have an end for that sentence, but still…check it out!
