Bad guys were young once, too.

Backstory for Mother, the leader of the vampires…

The evil “Mother” may rule the universe with an iron hand, but even mothers were young once—and after growing up on an ice-covered planet, it’s easy to see why she might have an ice-covered heart, too.

Mostly in shades of gray and black with only a few splashes of colour for the important bits. Interesting. I wonder where this is going to lead us…
