Wow, a page in full color. Awesome.
And look, Francis, Val and Addison are all dead.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:08 pm
Dang it Anko, I was going to be first this time.
And, AWESOME!!!!
I love the color thing, death to those who oppose it.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Full. Of. Awesome. Loving this and absolutely adoring the full color! ^_^

ROFL @ RAGE
January 27th, 2008 at 6:10 pm
Forgot to mention, good idea putting Rage in the page, makes it even more awesomer.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:10 pm
You’ll see a lot more of Rage soon.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
Great as usual.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
… is that Wrath in chains still tied up in the background in panel 4?
.. if it is… suck to be him :B
January 27th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Yes, go Rage-mania!
Its a pun, you know, he was a wrestler and a lil thing call Wrestle-mania?
I’ll shut up now, good night.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Rage* not wrath. My head was in the wrong place
January 27th, 2008 at 6:50 pm
Ooo, full colour o_o
Looks like there weren’t that many vampires back then =p
And having rage in the background was nice.
January 27th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
There were a lot more vampires back then.
January 27th, 2008 at 7:16 pm
love the look of this page guys,
Either way (black/white or color) this comic is amazing.
I am trying to picture the big battle in teh last gn in color and it looks amazing in my head.
January 27th, 2008 at 7:30 pm
Hrm, I wonder if Sullivan knows about the cure. Addison had another 60 years while Sullivan was being tortured. Just wondering if he knows the cure would work on him as well. I think I remember Bobby saying this would work on vampires and TFZs who were once human. I could be wrong though.
January 27th, 2008 at 7:39 pm
LOL i did not even see him at first till sombody said something i wonder if they are going to untie him anytime soon
January 27th, 2008 at 8:02 pm
Aw man, Sullivan is purple D:
January 27th, 2008 at 8:08 pm
Wow, I stopped reading the comic when vol 1 was finishes before christmas, I didn’t realize this would get picked back up so soon.
Holy shit guys, I’ve read through and watched comics grow in popularity and artistic design and I’ll have to say that adding color was the final piece to the puzzle here. You guys dont get half the credit you clearly deserve for such a masterwork webcom. I’ll have to consider buying the books now to put on my shelf.
Here to a successful vol 2
January 27th, 2008 at 8:54 pm
A question that just popped into my head (apologies if it has been asked before, I must have missed it if it has been) Might Math’s name, be in any way inspired by Richard Matheson? Thanks!
The comic looks wonderful in full colour! I always look forward to reading it.
January 27th, 2008 at 8:55 pm
Full color is awesome lol.
January 27th, 2008 at 9:27 pm
@ Reddy
Pretty sure Bobby has stated it a couple times if I remember correctly.
January 27th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
Great comic as always.
January 27th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Oops, my bad XD
Anyway, stll loving the full colour !
January 28th, 2008 at 5:19 am
@Arkus
Thanks! Sorry to have asked again then.
January 28th, 2008 at 5:25 am
Love Francis’ combover while he’s a corpse. I was like, “Wait, where’d he get them bandages over half his head?” before I realized that he was trying to not look half bald and then it just shifted when he hit the ground.
Which I think is hilarious. He’s missing half his face and has a gunshot wound to his forehead, but he’s still worried about looking bald.
January 28th, 2008 at 5:44 am
Aww Val is still dead, revive her! :/
January 28th, 2008 at 5:54 am
HAHAHA! OMG poor Rage…you know hes gonna be pissed when he gets out of there . had to look back after reading the comments, I was expecting him to be standing somewhere but thats even better
. commic looks kick ass in color and im already loving where this is going. keep up the great work guys
P.S. Math is still hot ^.^
January 28th, 2008 at 6:10 am
P U R E Awesome Sauce!
Great work on volume 2!
One drawbacdk though; now i have to start checking back everyday to look for updates
January 28th, 2008 at 6:56 am
Good thing I read the comments over. Rage in the background, that’s so awesome.
January 28th, 2008 at 7:20 am
Hmmmmhm She’d a Readhead?
Will april’s grandpa take the cure once he sends his zombies to hell?
January 28th, 2008 at 7:40 am
Poor Rage! I assume that it’s several hours after the end of the first GN? And nobody has unchained him so he could have some fun killing zombies! I feel sorry for the person that has to unwrap him…
January 28th, 2008 at 7:59 am
HAAHAHAHAHAHA… -tries to breathe- I’m okay, really. It’s just that Rage being still in a ball of chains is bleedin’ hilarious. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go find my lungs, as I overexerted myself this morning, and then saw the comic.
This be Claen’tor, signing off.
January 28th, 2008 at 7:59 am
What we need now is someone to go over to him and
*Person looks down on the chains and kicks*
Person – “You alive down there?”
Rage – “No, no one here cept us living chains, GET ME THE FUCK OUT!”
Person – “I’ll come back later, I need a nap”
Rage – “I hate you so much…”
*Person scuttles off with a smirk on his/her face*
January 28th, 2008 at 9:32 am
The only three vampies Sullivan got to know… but goddamn, its so fun to see Rage sitting in the background still like that.
January 28th, 2008 at 10:37 am
The scene in the last panel is really impressive
Great work, guys!
January 28th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
So happy this is starting up again. Have to get used to the coloured version of the comic, though. So used to seeing it in black and white.
Are we ever going to see Addison Payne without those goggles of his?
And everyone be sure to visit the Bobby Crosby Fan Forum which can be found here: http://z15.invisionfree.com/BobbyCrosby_Fansite/index.php?act=idx
January 28th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
Wow, I’m loving the full color page ^_^
I can’t wait to hear more about Sofia, ring and everything…And nuuuu.. back to dead A.F.P. x_x
Lots of love ^_^
January 28th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
Yes, she killed the big bad emo dude. And as a result, the zombies started eating EVERYONE.
Really liking the color pages, by the way.
January 28th, 2008 at 2:45 pm
Val looks great as a redhead.
Does this mean Penny Drake’s been confirmed for the role?
January 28th, 2008 at 5:20 pm
I don’t think he’s purple, that’s just the lighting. He’s normal in the first panel he’s in, and Val is blue in the last.
That’s how he’s showing darkness, I think.
January 28th, 2008 at 6:11 pm
I have to imagine sullivan is a pretty heroic guy. Not just for saving these people, but if he only knew 3 vampires, and he risked 60 years of torture just on the word of one of them. That’s a hero.
January 28th, 2008 at 6:21 pm
A little more complicated than just being on the word of one of them.
January 29th, 2008 at 11:46 am
Awesome stuff guys. This has to be some of the best art I’ve seen in a webcomic. Quality stuff.
January 29th, 2008 at 12:55 pm
I’ve been gone for way too long, obviously! This rocks on so many levels. I love the color, and the deadpan “I think adrenaline helped.” Keep this up guys, you got yourselves many crazed loyal fans.
Shameless plug. Click my name to go to the Facebook group devoted to this comic.
January 29th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Heh, I’m surprised, really wasn’t expecting full color. I wonder what Sullivan will do now. Can’t wait for the next page.
January 29th, 2008 at 1:29 pm
Even better in color. I knew Owen draw really well, but his inking&color skills are top. This page quality beats most of marvel or dc comics i’ve ever seen. After seeing that, i’m sure the movie will be BIG.
January 29th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
The colour is so awesome. Although it doesn’t really seem to change Math much to me.
Pity this doesn’t have a regular update day seeing as i read a hell of alot of webcomics and have memorised their update days and don’t check them aside from those days, really confusing here but the awesomeness that is Last Blood is so worth it.
January 29th, 2008 at 4:45 pm
Yes!
I loved the first comic but felt the ending was far to abrupt and partly required the comment section to to be sadisfieing. I’m -very- glad to see the story continued this way and have some light shed on everything happening after TFZ death.
January 29th, 2008 at 5:04 pm
Wasn’t Francis supposed [b]NOT[/b] to have any blood?
I always thought a schaemiac was a de-blooded vampire (who therefore does not have a smell).
And Francis clearly bled a lot on this page
January 29th, 2008 at 6:50 pm
Thanks, Demon. Just thought about that for 10 minutes and can’t come up with a good reason for why he would have blood there. I simply forgot about it somehow. Gonna ask Owen to change it.
January 29th, 2008 at 9:19 pm
*rage destroys the chains”
“LET’S THE RAGE_MANIA BEGINS…hey..where are the zombies??”
Math: “oh, there you are..well…sullivan took care of them….”
Rage: “MOTHERFUCKER”
January 29th, 2008 at 9:21 pm
wait…I wrote: “let’s” the rage-mania begins….sorry for that
January 30th, 2008 at 11:23 am
Always glad to help, Bobby.
Looks like I am becoming a Last Blood geek
January 30th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
Full color page! Very cool. I like the shadowing and everything, very well done! I missed this comic during the break . . . But it’s back now! Whoo hoo! Good on ya, and great page as always.
Sullivan looks very cool on the bottom left frame, by the way. ^^
January 30th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Im sure that Rage will be important in the disposel of Sullivans Zombies.
January 30th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
Hi,
I don’t know if this has been asked before (I checked all your comments Bobby, so I know you haven’t answered, at the least), but, is the printed color version of Last Blood going to cost more than the first volume comics did? If you already know, how much? They look excellent…
January 30th, 2008 at 6:58 pm
There’s actually probably not going to be any individual printed issues for the second volume, but just a full graphic novel after it’s all done early next year. The reason for that is because of the cost of color and because the first four issues didn’t sell quite as well as we wanted and also because we don’t want any deadlines for this GN that caused so many problems with the first one and made things rushed. The second GN will probably cost a little more to purchase than the first GN because of the color.
January 30th, 2008 at 7:06 pm
Terrific page as usual, loving the color! Owen have you done any other cover art for last blood, or perhaps a :gasp: wallpaper? I’d love to sport a LB desktop picture and have my friends say “what the heck is that?” only to be addicted to the comic sixteen minutes later
Smashing job guys!
January 31st, 2008 at 12:27 am
hmmm.. I was trying to find any flaws again I think to apply some well mannered criticism. A single flaw (with the blood on Francis) was already covered and will be corrected and its not even a mistake – It was just overseen in the creative process… There is nothing bad I can say about the new GN. Unfortunately ;P I have to admit that all the other comments are right. Your work (and I mean both the writer and the artist) is OUTSTANDING and getting better and better every page. Thumbs up and a lot of Yays for you!
PS. Was it me or did the LB and Marry Me servers suffered a downtime lately? I wasnt able to open the comic and got 404 NOT FOUND.
January 31st, 2008 at 1:07 am
Probably – last week both sites refused to open for most of the day. I could only access them in late evening. And during the day – 404 Not Found.
It seems to be fine today
January 31st, 2008 at 8:22 pm
I often get trouble acessing this website.
February 1st, 2008 at 9:10 pm
Does that mean the whole story so far was a flashback?
February 1st, 2008 at 9:19 pm
No, it does not mean that at all.
February 2nd, 2008 at 8:51 am
Last Blood continues to be one of the best ongoing series being published on the web…keep up the great work!
February 2nd, 2008 at 11:28 am
Frank, did you mean “the whole story so far” as in this graphic novel, or as in the whole dang thing, including the first graphic novel?
February 3rd, 2008 at 11:01 am
THIS IS THE BEST PAGE SO FAR!
February 12th, 2008 at 12:57 pm
Bobby, any chance we’ll have a sixth page any time soon?
May 23rd, 2008 at 8:18 am
*squeams* ouch…
June 15th, 2009 at 10:45 am
Why the zombie-vampire have hairs first and then he have no hairs but bandage?
