Summary
So this vampire walks into a bar...Yes, it sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but it’s just another night in the never-ending life of Marty Kowalski. With his trademark slogan – “There’s a sucker born every minute” – this blood-drinking bachelor has managed to talk half the mortal world into joining the graveyard shift. Now vampires outnumber humans, and Marty is so bored he could die – again. With modern conveniences like synthetic blood and Mr. Plasma machines, the thrill of the hunt is gone. Especially for Marty, who’s starting to wonder if he should just settle down, maybe start a family. Hey, it could happen. But is this confirmed nightcrawler fully prepared to adopt – and raise – a human of his own?
