Shadows of Dooooom! – part 18
I don’t know enough about science to know if you could heat fire enough to make it change states into something else. Anyone here want to explain it to me?
Who could the vampire be? Draculaugh? DisCount Slacksula? Vampirate? Draculove? Douglas the dull-toothed vampire? Post Vampire? That walrus vampire thing? Wow, I’ve done a lot of vampire jokes.
Rejected jokes for this strip included: “That guy’s so hot he should be setting off the smoke detectors!”, “That guy’s so hot that he can’t eat ice cream, it becomes scalding hot cream”, “That guy’s so dreamy I feel like I should have my night guard in”, “That guy’s so far from homely he’s in another world”, “That guy’s so handsome photographs get plastic surgery to look like him” and “That’s guy’s cheekbones are so high they’re forehead bones.”

“I don’t have time to rave hard! There’s evil to be smitten!” Best Line. EVER!! I will be quoting that to friends and family forever!!

I like the last two rejected jokes, though the last one would be pretty tough for the art.
In answer to the question about heating fire, according to Wikipedia, “The flame is the visible portion of the fire and consists of glowing hot gases. If hot enough, the gases may become ionized to produce plasma.”

At least Patricia is safe from being smitten.

“Vampirate?”
Funny you should mention that…

Broadly speaking, super hot fire makes plasma. You can try it at home with common kitchen appliances: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6732382807079775486# (but you probably shouldn’t).

Gas is beyond liquid. you might be able to turn it into plasma, but melting it would require it be frozen. “that guy’s so cool he could freeze fire” would make sense though. Sort of.
