Easter Bunny – Santa’s closest confidant, due to the similarities of their jobs. Fittingly, his own martyring is what kicks off the adventure in the beginning of the story.
Nick Frosty – Santa’s head of security and leader of ‘The Silent Bells’, Santa’s elite security force (named that because they have taken the balls out of the bells on their outfits, allowing them a stealth most elves do not have). Nick is an eye-patch wearing, cigar smoking tough guy who knows his way around a fight. His catchphrase is: “Don’t be such a pixie!”
The Werewolf – A smart-assed, teen-age werewolf who betrayed his lupine brethren to Dracula when he realized vampires get more women (especially since ‘Twilight’…I mean, my god!). He wants Dracula to see him as a son, but sociopaths can’t love. Oddly, he’s almost an amalgam of actor Seth Green’s two best known characters, Scott Evil from ‘Austin Powers’ and Oz the werewolf from ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’. Mostly though he’s a spoof of both 50’s horror film ‘I was a Teenage Werewolf’ and 80’s cult comedy ‘Teen Wolf’ while playing off the fact werewolves have never been as cool as vampires.
The Abominable Snowman – Basically just a big dumb yeti who is forced to make a choice as to whether he’s a cuddly or creepy.
The Invisible Man – A one joke character who show why someone who has to get naked for his powers to work should not be on a mission at the North Pole. When he is shown ‘in costume’ for a panel or two, he dresses in a surfing wet suit, S&M mask, and ‘Groucho Marx’ glasses.
Brides of Dracula – Three female vampire servants of Dracula. To put a modern spin on the soullessness of vampires, we’ve based them of today’s vapid ‘celebutantes’ such as Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton, and Kim Kardashian. It’s hinted one of them is bloodlimic (a vampire eating disorder consisting of a cycle of leeching and purging, leeching and purging…)
