Today’s cartoon, by Ali Solomon:

Medusa, Vampira, a human-size bumblebee or fly creature, and the Bride of Frankenstein are all sitting in a circle in a bedroom. The latter reads from a piece of paper. The heading reads “Monster MASH.”

“So you’re going to marry Godzilla, live in a crypt, have four spawn, and drive a hearse.”
