Rhapsodies

I’m trying to be a little picky in my selection for this year’s playlist so there has to be more to a song than just Halloween subject matter to make the cut. Mood and tone are equally important. This song, Warren Zevon’s Werewolves in London will probably be the exception but I’ve got a good excuse.

See I have this recurring character who I’ve been trying to fit into various side projects, I may recycle him as a villain for my current idea for an adventure strip. Anyway he’s a werewolf antihero (technically he’s more of a Mr. Hyde figure as he rarely goes beyond the fangs and general hairiness (growing claws would spoil his manicure)) who’s a bit of an urbane thug who is very much the “hairy handed gent” described in the song (though running amuck in Kent, Washington is a bit more challenging and not quite as fun.)

Anyway I thought it was appropriate… Enjoy
