Nosfera is the story of a vampire named, aptly enough, Nosfera, after her husband Brahm is killed by the vampire hunter Seymour Van Bellsing. She has to deal with learning about her new powers that she inherited from Brahm, revelations about him, and the vampire hunter coming back to finish the job. This comic can be found on Deviantart and is made by the user BrokenTeapot. It is also an Affectionate Parody of Castlevania.
The series ended with eleven chapters, and BrokenTeapot started a sequel series, found here, but Schedule Slip quickly ensued, and now the entire site is defunct.
