Set aside the question of whether all politicians are bloodsuckers, and check out John Kerry in the latest issue of "Sword of Dracula" (Image, $2.95). The Democratic presidential candidate turns up for a sighting of the fanged one in an unusual place: Vietnam, 1968, where Kerry served in the U.S. Navy.

"I didn't put Kerry in to push a leftist doctrine. I just thought people deserved to remember that this man, when he was a young man, actually walked away from a wealthy and comfortable life and went to a place where there were pieces of metal flying around that could tear you apart."

Henderson hadn't planned to make George W. Bush into a character but says, "I do believe in equal time."

If fans want to see the president during his Air National Guard stint, Henderson says he's game, and considers the possibilities: "... stuffing envelopes?"

So, you see, Kerry's already beaten Bush once!

1. I've got a plotline for Bush v. Dracula.

Dracula attacks Bush's best friend, turning said friend into a vampire.
Bush vows revenge at all costs against Dracula.
Then Bush instead goes after Frankenstein's Monster, suggesting that F. M. and Dracula were "in cahoots," despite the fact that the two had never even met.
