Baptiste steals his smartphone back from Ethan, before Ethan has a chance to smash it. -Baptiste: "How would you feel if I broke YOUR phone?!" -Ethan, unfazed: "Go ahead and try! If it can survive a disaster like ME for years, there's nothing YOU could possibly do to hurt it!" -Baptiste: "So my ex never managed to break it, either?" -Ethan, running off, suddenly panicked: "SHIT!!!"

Baptiste hugs an annoyed Ethan from behind, while staring down happily at his smartphone. -Baptiste: "Ooh! Look at--" -Ethan: "I swear, if that's another cat video, I'm gonna break this phone even worse than the last one!" Baptiste pouts momentarily, then returns to his prior enthusiasm, hugging Ethan even more tightly. -Baptiste: "But--!" Staying true to his word, Ethan steals Baptiste's smartphone and gets ready to hurl it to the ground.

Ethan is currently married to Lilibeth! Becoming a vampire has put a strain on their marriage, though...
Strip #141 of my webcomic, the Undeath of Me. Ethan has a memory of marrying Lilibeth, which then shifts into a more recent memory of him--now a vampire--biting and almost killing her. A bloodstained Baptiste snaps him out of his thoughts by telling him how he has found his wedding ring.

The Undeath of Me returns next week! Here are the latest updates for this #webcomic, in the meantime! uniquelyholden.carrd.co
Ethan examines his outstretched arms, as Baptiste sits next to him on the couch. -Ethan: "Is one arm shorter than the other now?!" -Baptiste: "Were they the same length before?" -Ethan: "I dunno...I never checked." -Baptiste: "Then don't worry about it." Grumpily resigned to his fate, Ethan slumps downward, crowding out Baptiste. Ethan grumpily hugs a bat pillow close to his chest, as Baptiste leans toward him on the couch. -Baptiste: "Do you want to watch--" -Ethan: "No." -Baptiste: "Then how about--" -Ethan: "No." -Baptiste: "Well, what if--" -Ethan: "No." -Baptiste, standing: "I can just LEAVE, if you'd rather--" -Ethan, while yanking Baptiste back down: "NO." Curled up on the couch, with his back turned to Baptiste, Ethan hugs a bat pillow close to himself. Baptiste watches silently, unsure of how to react. "QUIT STARIN' AT ME!" Ethan snaps at him, making Baptiste look away. Ignored by Ethan once again, Baptiste sits around, bored, before pulling out a smartphone for entertainment. Ethan peers over his shoulder at this in confusion. -Ethan, pointing at Baptiste's smartphone: "Didn't I break that damn thing?" -Baptiste, all smiles: "This is one of the phones my ex stole from me! I found it in his bag after cleaning up his remains! Isn't that great?!" -Ethan, crossing his arms: "Why would I think that's great?" -Baptiste, no longer smiling: "Because you're the one who told me not to waste money getting my other phone fixed. Thought you'd be happy about being right!" -Ethan, as Baptiste grows more disillusioned: "Meh."

This is how I'm gonna look every time someone hits the dislike button on one of my posts
-Archie: "Jughead, am I repulsive?" -Jughead: "No more than usual!"

Ethan's a foul-mouthed disaster, while Baptiste is a perky airhead with no sense of boundaries, so both are equally annoying in different ways! The two of them being vampires just makes things worse for all the humans around them...
A pair of vampires from my webcomic, the Undeath of Me. Baptiste is very proud of the matching kitty-ear hats he has knitted for himself and Ethan. Ethan stands grumpily next to him, resigned to the fact that he has to wear one.

Ethan, the Unfriendly Ghost! #Webcomic uniquelyholden.carrd.co
A non-canonical comic strip for my webcomic, the Undeath of Me, featuring Baptiste and Ethan as ghosts for Halloween! Ethan, going the more stereotypical route, has draped himself with a polka-dotted bedsheet, complete with eyeholes. The patches he's sewn on are all speckled with blood, since he kept stabbing himself with the needle by accident. Baptiste's costume is far more extravagant. His aristocratic suit is torn and ragged, and has a reflective sheen. Broken chains dangle from his wrists. He has used contacts and eyeshadow to give his face a more haunting look. Smiling brightly at Ethan, he says, "What do you think of my ghost costume?!" Salty over how much more impressive Baptiste's costume is, Ethan double-handedly flips him off as well as he can from beneath the bedsheet. Baptiste's smile turns into the saddest of frowns.

More Halloween art for the Undeath of Me, this time featuring costumes readers voted for in 2021!
Lilibeth, dressed as a gothic mermaid, stands by irritably while Baptiste walks off with a flailing Ethan over his shoulder. Baptiste has chosen to be a pirate for Halloween. Ethan is technically a merman, but barely looks the part, since all he did was wrap leftover fabric from Lilibeth's costume around his waist and add a few accessories, including a trident too broken for duct tape to fix. Jay is dressed as a jack-in-the-box for Halloween, while Spencer is a blood-splattered ventriloquist dummy. Spencer has glomped onto Jay from behind, all smiles. Jay simply stands there awkwardly, unable to look away from the off-panel horrors before him.

Halloween art for my webcomic, the Undeath of Me, featuring costumes readers voted for in 2020!
Baptiste has dressed up as a devil for Halloween, complete with horns and a pristine red suit. Ethan is a bedraggled angel, the broken halo on his head barely holding on with duct tape. Muffling Ethan in the middle of an F-bomb, Baptiste says, "Stay in character!" Ethan celebrating Halloween with his wife, Lilibeth, back when he was still human. Lilibeth is dressed as a black cat, while Ethan is a witch. He uses a broom to keep her pressed against him, their gazes locked. Their costumes won't be staying on for long. My characters, Spencer and Jay, dressed as a prince and fairy for Halloween. Jay watches helplessly as a smirking, bloodstained Spencer thrusts an even bloodier sword in front of his face.

Soooo...apparently this happened. After posting on this platform for five years, I never expected Webtoon to acknowledge my webcomic in any way, so I'm all kinds of confused now... 🙃

Even more Archie homages!
Art for my webcomic, the Undeath of Me, based on Archie's Mad House #16. Ethan, a hapless, human salesman, holds a taped-up briefcase while approaching Baptiste. He says to the smiling vampire, "I'm starved! Know where I can get a good bite?" Art for Undeath of Me, based on Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #3. A boat exits the Tunnel of Terror. Ethan, all smiles, wipes at his bloodied mouth and exclaims, "God, I love the taste of your blood, Lilibeth!" Lilibeth, confused, responds, "What are you talking about?!" A disheveled Baptiste is in the seat behind them, his neck bitten and bleeding. Art inspired by Life with Archie #2, featuring Lilibeth, Ethan, and Baptiste from Undeath of Me. The three of them are encircled in a heart. Baptiste gazes adoringly at Ethan, while Ethan does the same toward Lilibeth. Lilibeth stares at the drink they're sharing in disgust, not sipping through her straw like the others, since it's full of blood.

Homage of Archie Annual #14, featuring characters from my webcomic, the Undeath of Me.

Harry Lucey's cover for Archie Annual #14. Archie stands nervously in the foreground, as Betty and Veronica speak to him from behind. -Betty: "Archie, tell us who you think are more attractive! Blondes...?" -Veronica: "...or brunettes?"

Honestly can't blame Archie for wanting to marry into money, instead of hitching himself to the madness that is Betty... 😅
Comic panel of Betty speaking cheerfully to the reader, after gagging and tying up Archie: "Not exactly a super idea, but it's effective!"

Homicidal Betty is the best Betty...
Comic panel of Archie waiting to be cut in half during a magic show. To his horror, Betty tries to use the saw to decapitate him instead. The magician exclaims, "No! No! Start down here!" Comic panel of a magician pulling Betty away from Archie, before she can saw his head off. -Archie: "BETTY! Don't lose your head!" -Betty: "I won't lose MINE! You two-timer!" -Magician: "HEY!"

Ethan has two sisters, and is the middle child of his family. Here's some concept art I created earlier this year of the eldest!
Concept art for my webcomic, the Undeath of Me. Baptiste, disgusted, exclaims, "Gross!" while Ethan's older sister looks over at him with a raised eyebrow.
