After a bit of an absence from comics, I’ve translated this one because it’s nearly Halloween and it was the magazine’s Halloween special. It ran in two parts, in the nominal Halloween issue (September/October) in 1996 and 1997. Both parts are here for your convenience.
This comic seems like the turning point for the magazine, where things start getting really crazy. It introduces a few running jokes that are used in subsequent comics, including the made-up greeting “Holerö” which gained enough prominence to be a central plot point in a later issue. Now I post these out of order so it may not be obvious, but I invite you to check out my handy spreadsheet to see where each comic fits in.
The idea of this comic is that a bunch of Nintendo characters live together in a Brooklyn apartment building (although we only see 7 of them in the comic). Their night is ruined when Wario conspires with a demon to infest the place with monsters straight out of horror movies (see if you can spot all the references). Mario, Link, and Kirby team up with the aid of Van Helsing’s vampire hunting gear, and later the Necronomicon itself to fight them off. It’s spoooooky! Well, it’s whacky and weird, which is exactly what we love about Club Nintendo’s comics.
I hope it gets you in the mood for Halloween or whatever, and please spread it around. Like a vampire!
