Comic Book Resources: Horror filmmaker and best-selling "Bloodshot" writer Kevin VanHook returns to comics for “Superman and Batman vs. Vampires and Werewolves,” and spoke with CBR News about the project.
I really dislike "Superman vs Vampire" stories. The guy has heat vision which is supposedly concentrated solar energy. A Superman/Vampire fight should last all of thirty seconds.
I know that the writers always pull out the "but vampires are magic" argument. However, that still doesn't work. Even with their 'magic' powers, vampires wilt in the face of good, old, normal sunlight.
The only story of this type that every worked for me was the "Skeeter" story that John Byrne and Art Adams did 20 years ago because that was supposedly the first time that Superman met a vampire and one could understand why he had trouble dealing with them: his inexperience.
