Seth
Overkill, leader of the vampires, suffers from OCD and
Agoraphobia. This wouldn’t be such a bad thing if Seth didn’t
also suffer from Mysophobia, a fear of germs, which greatly
inhabits his ability to bite anyone to feed. If Seth doesn’t
feed by Reckoning Day, then all of the vampires will
disintegrate and the Master from Hell will take over the world
Searching
for a cure, Seth turns to the one person who is supposed to
protect him, his Ayudante, Elaine “Lainey” Puro
Shrink. Luckily for him, Lainey is actually a psychiatrist,
and is willing to take on this new client. Unluckily for him,
Lainey doesn’t believe in vampires. She doesn’t remember
knowing him when she was a child and she has no idea what an
Ayudante is, nor why she should cure a so-called
“vampire” so he can feed again. But this shrink needs to heal
herself because Lainey is experiencing very erotic and exotic
dreams featuring the nutcase known as Seth.
Revamped offers a new twist on the vampire tale – I
love the idea of a vampire afraid to bite anyone’s neck
because of germs – which sounds pretty reasonable to me,
actually. Seth and Lainey strike sparks off each other and
they practically set the sheets afire when they finally do the
horizontal mambo. There are several other interesting minor
stories in Revamped. I just wished Ms. Bright
had either concluded the issues these stories brought up or
deleted them all together; I hate not knowing how things work
out. If you want to know how things worked out with Seth and
Lainey (and the world), pick up a copy of Revamped. |
