Me: "I wonder if anyone else will find the skeleton lady hot. Maybe I'm the only one who's into a mean goth woman who will step on you." The Internet: "Can the skeleton lady step on me"

My first reaction to the last panel was "...The skeleton lady is not the main show?!"

Look, Sen, this one's entirely on you, sorry. That's like asking if people will be interested in a new store that sells peanut butter and chocolate treats at below cost price.

"Ghouls and fools" was the icing on the cake - as someone with two partners who are different flavours of "hot genderfucky goth who will step on you" I am very much in favour 😵‍💫

Absolutely gobsmacked no one has mentioned Tamsyn Muir's _Gideon the Ninth_ and its sequels in this thread. "What if Warhammer 40k but lesbian space necromancers" is so obviously great and the writing is so good good it really transcends the silly high concept

Sorry I got over-excited and didn't notice the Locked Tomb (proper series name) references by several people of impeccable taste and refinement
