The Tick and Arthur receive a mysterious summons and wind up in Middle of Nowhere, Ohio. Okay, they also make have gotten lost somewhere on the New Jersey Turnpike...
While at their destination, they discover the place abandoned and pretty eerie. That is until the hoards of rats show up. Then comes the vampire hunter who mistakes Tick for a bloodsucker (I mean he is called the Tick after all.) Finally, Tick and Arthur come face to face with the head vampire who seeks to make the Tick his field general in a rat infested army of the undead. There's only one way for the Tick to defeat this demon- break out the Monopoly set!
The Tick returns to his level of zaniness hijinx in this very funny and somewhat creepy issue. The story would have made a great Halloween special. The art again was very good and I loved the character of the vampire hunter. But it's the odd humor and non-sequiturs that make this a classic Tick tale.
Worth Consuming
