…Was really a Vampire?

Here is a link that offers a look-see.

I'd never want to be a supervillian on his turff.

They did an elseworlds years ago called red rain

And there was a great Batman the Brave and the Bold episode inspired by Red Rain (I think) where Bats gets bitten and then goes all Dracula on the Justice League.

I think there is a animated movie of Batman vs Dracula. I have watched it before. Certainly makes his normal foes pale in comparison.

I actually remember that!

Lord I'm old!

And here is a link to the whole thing:

I was once invited to play an NPC in a session of Vampire: The Masquerade as a Malkavian (an insane ckan of vampires) who was delusional and thought he was Batman and a member of the Gangrel clan. Now, the GM had created this character as a villain, but it was presented to the group as "my character" and that night I was joining them.

The group thought I was an actual superhero character built with the Trinity game rules for quite a while…

I remember a waaays back that GW was alluding to the Blood Angels SMs were Vamps. And the Space Wolves had some in their ranks that were Lycan … Must have been about the time the Twilight books came out …

Regarding the Blood Angels and Space Wolves various proclivities, the flaws in those chapters are often surprisingly effectively used to add an air of tragedy to these otherwise noble forces.

In one instance a Blood Angels unit helped to fight off an Ork attack only to turn on their allies in their literal thirst for blood.

Space Wolves often have their recruits turn into freaky werewolf Wulfen. As they are noble the space Wolves don't kill their erstwhile brothers, but lock them up beneath the Fang to be released on enemy forces that are to be utterly annihilated.
