Mona the Vampire

Ahhhhhhhhh

Yay Mona

WHAT'S THE SCOOP ON DR. JAVA?

CAN HE MAKE DECENT ICE CREAM FLOATS?

I'VE HEARD THEY MAKE A FLOAT WITH SUPER TRIPLE DECKER

NEAPOLITAN ICE CREAM WITH SPRINKLES

AND IT ALL FLOATS

I'VE HEARD DR. JAVA MAKES A STRAWBERRY AND BANANA

POWER MILKSHAKE WITH A KETCHUP SWIRL.

NOW THAT'S A SPECIALTY.

HUH?

THIS IS TERRIBLE WHAT A LINE UP

WE CAN ALWAYS GO TO GOOD OLE MR. HYDE'S.

THERE'S NO LINE UP AT HIS PLACE

AND HE ALWAYS GIVES ME GREAT OLD COMIC BOOKS.

I'D RATHER WAIT AN HOUR IN LINE

THAN EAT ONE OF MR. HYDE'S PLAIN OLD VANILLA FLOATS.

MONA CHARLEY AND LILY

I KNEW I COULD COUNT ON YOUR LOYALTY.

NOT LIKE ALL THOSE OTHER FAIR WEATHER CUSTOMERS

ABANDONING ME FOR SOME DR. JAVA

AND HIS FANCY ICE CREAMS.

UM, YEAH...

WELL, THERE'S NOTHING LIKE

ONE OF MR. HYDE'S VANILLA FLOATS.

RIGHT, CHARLEY?

UM, NO, NOTHING LIKE IT.

WE SHOULD HAVE WAITED IN LINE AT DR. JAVA'S.

THESE ICECREAM FLOATS DON'T EVEN FLOAT.

MY PERFECT COFFEE.

(SLURPS)

YUCK

MONA, MY FAVORITE AND MOST LOYAL CUSTOMER,

I HAVE ANOTHER LITTLE VON KREEPSULA COMIC FOR YOU.

I FOUND THE COMIC AMONG MY EXBROTHER'S BELONGINGS.

YOU HAVE A BROTHER?

AN EXBROTHER?

A LONG TIME AGO,

WE USED TO OPERATE AN ICECREAM PARLOR TOGETHER. SURE, HE WAS GREAT AT SCOOPING ICE CREAM

AND SURE, HE KNEW HOW TO MAKE A DECENT CUP OF COFFEE,

BUT HE HAD NO TABLESIDE MANNER;

NO PATIENCE WITH THE CUSTOMERS.

IT'S TOO HOT.

OF COURSE IT'S HOT, IT'S COFFEE

IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE HOT

I TOLD HIM TO BE NICER TO THE CUSTOMERS

THEN HE TOLD ME MY ICE CREAM FLOATS WERE BORING

AND THAT THE COFFEE I MADE WAS BITTER.

WE HAD A BIG FIGHT,

AND MARVIN GOT SO MAD HE TOOK OFF.

I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM IN YEARS.

WE SHOULD HAVE GONE TO DR. JAVA'S.

BUT WE DON'T WANT GOOD OL' MR. HYDE TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS.

IF ONLY MY BROTHER WERE STILL WITH ME

TO HELP WAGE WAR AGAINST THIS...

DR. JAVA.

BUT DR. JAVA WILL NEVER STEAL ALL MY CUSTOMERS,

WILL HE, KIDS?

NO, MR. HYDE.

UM, NO, MR. HYDE.

BLITZIE

YOU KNOW HOW LONG I WAITED IN LINE FOR THAT COFFEE?

YOU MIGHT AS WELL ENJOY IT.

CHARLEY, MONA AND LILY: HI, MRS. BREYERSEN HOW YOU DOING, MRS. B.?

HELLO, CHILDREN.

WOW I'VE NEVER SEEN BLITZIE SO VICIOUS.

LET'S GO SEE WHERE THIS DR. JAVA MAKES HIS ICE CREAM.

WE WON'T BUY ANY, WE'LL JUST LOOK.

(LAUGHING)

WITH THIS HIGH-OCTANE LATTECHOCOCHINO,

THERE WILL BE NO STOPPING ME

NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO RESIST ITS HIGH-ENERGY YUMMINESS

AND I WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD OF COFFEE RETAIL

HE LOOKS LIKE A MAD SCIENTIST.

AHHH PERFECT.

(GASP, TERRIFIED)

(SCREAM)

BLITZIE GET OVER HERE

WHAT'S GOTTEN INTO YOU?

THOUGHT I SAW SOMEONE BACK THERE.

WHERE'S FANG?

BUT I DON'T GET IT.

BLITZIE IS A DOG AND DR. JAVA IS A HUMAN.

SO HOW CAN THEY HAVE THE SAME TRANSFORMING CONDITION?

TO MY BROTHER MARVIN... WITH LOVE.

MR. HYDE AND DR. JAVA?

WOW LOOK AT THIS, FANG

THEY'RE BROTHERS

IT'S DR. JAVA AND MR. HYDE, ALL RIGHT.

WOW

MR. HYDE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW IT'S HIS OWN BROTHER WHO'S STEALING ALL HIS CUSTOMERS.

NOW, 1X PLUS 1X ALWAYS EQUALS...

2X.

OR SO I THOUGHT... (LAUGHS)

UNTIL I DATED MR. WRONG.

UNTIL WE WENT TO THIS FANCY ITALIAN RESTAURANT.

BUT WHO WOULD HAVE KNOWN HE WAS WEARING A TOUPEE...

AND ACTUALLY HATED ITALIAN FOOD?

GRRR... HE USED HIS FINGERS TO EAT THE SCALOPPINI.

WHAT'S WITH MISS GOTTO?

THAT SUPER STRONG DR. JAVA COFFEE

IS TURNING HER INTO A JITTERY HYPERFREAK.

MONA?

I WILL THANK YOU NOT TO INTERRUPT ME

WHEN I AM LECTURING THE MATH CLASS

ON MY EXBOYFRIENDS.

MY VAMPIRE SENSES ARE TELLING ME

THAT SOMETHING DASTARDLY IS PERCOLATING AT DR. JAVA'S,

AND MY GUESS IS...

A SUMATRANMOKA HYPER FREAKS BLEND

I THINK ZAP MAN, PRINCESS GIANT,

AND MONA THE VAMPIRE

BETTER PAY THIS DR. JAVA A LITTLE VISIT.

AFTER WE FINISH OUR HOMEWORK.

OOH

YOU ARE DRAGGING YOUR DIRTY SHOES

OVER THE FLOOR I JUST MOPPED

I WORK LONG HOURS CLEANING UP AFTER THE LIKES OF YOU.

SCRUB WAX

WAX SCRUB

AHHH

NO RUNNING IN THE HALLS

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR DETENTIONS?

WE'RE TRAPPED

AS PRINCIPAL, I CAN GIVE DETENTIONS TO ANYONE

ANYTIME

WAX, SCRUB, WAX, WAX...

THIS WAY

GOOD NIGHT, BOB.

YOU TOO, PRINCIPAL SHAWBLY. (DOOR CLOSES)

OH NO

CHARLEY, FORGET YOUR HOMEWORK

GET INTO YOUR ZAP MAN COSTUME

AND MEET ME AND LILY AT DR. JAVA'S.

I THINK THIS WHOLE TOWN

IS ABOUT TO BE HYPERFREAKIFIED.

PRINCESS GIANT, THIS IS HYPERFREAK CITY

ALL THE ADULT HYPER FREAKS ARE STARTING TO SURROUND US.

LET'S GO

DOWN HERE

(GROAN AND GROWL)

THIS IS WHAT'S TRANSFORMING ALL THE ADULTS IN TOWN

INTO JITTERY HYPER FREAKS.

(WHISTLING)

SOMEONE'S COMING

ANOTHER EXCELLENT DAY OF BUSINESS,

THANKS TO YOU, MY SUPER PERCOLATOR.

NO ONE CAN RESIST YOUR RICH AROMA

AND FULLBODIED FLAVOR

AND OVERWHELMING POWER

SOON EVERYONE IN THE WORLD WILL BE A JITTERY HYPERFREAK,

AND I WILL BE KING OF THE UNIVERSE

I SMELL SPIES

IS ZAP MAN TOO LATE TO SAVE HIS FELLOW CAPED CRUSADERS?

CHARLEY HIDE

(GROWLS)

(ANGRY GRUNT)

FEE FIE FOE OFFEE,

CATS ALWAYS LAND ON THEIR FEET.
