Listen to the Dark Priest Shaft, he knows his music. Rock on, undead man. Don't worry, I haven't gone mad. The image above is a simple mock of the latest Castlevania-themed web comics, which were officially translated by the humour-happy folks at Konami.
Offered via the online home of the most recent DS and Wii franschise titles, each of the available short stories has a little joke or pun to make, about the now-legendary series' past and present. Some pretty embarrassing moments of the usually dead (ha, another pun) serious characters are on display. I'm only wondering if Richter and company are able to sue their own creators.
Eighteen comics are available so far, but at least three more of them should show up soon, if the remaining blank spots left are to be trusted. Then again, much like anything related to Castlevania, they probably have some sinister -- if cheesy -- secrets to hide from us.
Just slide your way to the official Castlevania promotional website for the whole bunch. I promise, most of them are much funnier than my own jokes.
