Scooby-Doo! And Kiss: Rock and Roll Mystery Page #3

Sounds like they spun around

one two many times in those drums.

No. Like, he shot eye beams,

he grew claws...

...he did lightning bolts, and he flew in

and blew the biggest fire ever.

Thank you, Mr. Demon.

Beat it, mutt, before you dent my armor.

Yes, sir. Of course, sir.

- Shaggy, you're imagining things.

- He didn't imagine the witch, that's for sure.

What should we do now?

You must leave!

Trust me, KISS,

these children are nothing but trouble.

You think they're allies, but in the end...

...the only person they'll help

is the Crimson Witch...

...in her plans to bring total devastation

to this world.

They must go now or all is lost.

Guys, you've gotta stop doing this.

If you wanna speak further,

you know where to find me.

- Who was that?

- Chikara, the psychic.

- She works at the park.

- She tells people's fortunes.

Well, she smells like a mixture

of patchouli and hobo.

She's actually very wise.

- Maybe someone should talk to her.

- I'll go.

Mind if I tag along?

I find it odd that she thinks

she knows so much about the witch.

Some of us should go back to the drum ride

and try to pick up the witch's trail.

I'll go with you, if you want.

I want.

I'll go too.

Demon, Catman,

keep an eye on Scooby and Shaggy.

I got better things to do

than babysit dogs and hippies.

Hey, have fun.

These confetti bombs

just aren't getting any cheaper.

There. I got some residue

from the witch's mist.

Heh, that's nice, Fred.

Say, could you take a picture of me

and Starchild looking for clues?

Is this really necessary?

He's a rock star, Fred. A rock star.

- Just do it.

- All right.

And a couple more for safety.

Thank you so much.

- My pleasure.

- Let me see. Let me see. Let me see.

Fred. Your thumb was in the way.

On all of them.

Gosh. Heh.

I'm sorry.

Are you doing this on purpose?

No. I just don't see what the big deal is.

We've solved over

a thousand mysteries together...

...and you've never once asked

to have a picture taken with me.

No worries. I got one of the both of you.

In vibrant, colorful acrylic.

- You just painted our portrait?

- Sure.

- Just now?

- No big deal.

Just something I do in my spare time.

Oops. Well, look, my thumb got in the way.

But you painted it.

Luckily I did a couple more for safety.

Aah! It's beautiful.

I think I liked your thumb better.

We should take some more pictures

of the scene itself.

No need. One scan with my special eye

will tell us all we'll need to know.

It puts the X in x-ray.

Oof. My nephew had a special eye.

A pink one we called conjunctivitis.

There's definitely a supernatural presence

at work here.

Hey, guys, wait. Listen.

Not bad, but I am not into tap dancing.

I am purely into rock 'n' roll!

Whoa, yeah!

Okay.

Well, one side sounds solid.

And the other hollow.

As if it's some sort of trapdoor.

Exactly.

It looks like one of the doors

to the catacombs.

The what-a-combs?

The catacombs are what we call the maze

of hallways that run under the park.

They give us access to any area,

including the main stage.

I'll bet this is how the witch disappeared.

Sounds dangerous.

- Stay back, Frank.

- It's Fred.

I'll go first to make sure it's safe.

I hope he's all right.

For Pete's sake.

What are you doing?

It's not like this is the first time

I've ever climbed into a... Aah!

Oof!

I'd watch that last step.

It's a doozy.

Chikara, we need to talk.

Spaceman, I sensed your approach.

- You mean you heard the wind chimes?

- Hmph. Why do you bring this one with you?

Starchild seems to think they're okay.

Plus, they've got a talking dog,

which is kind of wild.

Starchild cannot see as deep as I can.

He has but one special eye,

whereas I have two.

Some people say I have four.

I know you think this is a joke,

Miss Smarty-Pants...

...but your ignorance will cost us all.

Okay, then, I'm game.

Tell us what we need to know.

How serious is the threat?

The danger grows, Spaceman.

The Crimson Witch senses

the rock of Kissteria is near.

Rock of Kissteria? What's that?

It's the key to holding evil at bay.

This began on a Halloween night

on another world...

...in a cosmic realm known as Kissteria.

An evil Sorceress,

called the Crimson Witch...

...created a gigantic horror

known as the Destroyer.

She sent the Destroyer to spread

devastation throughout the land...

...the first step toward infecting

the entire realm with evil.

Destroy!

But the warriors had a weapon.

Cosmic power crystals.

The Kissteria crystals.

Each crystal sounded a musical note.

The warriors used the music of the crystals

to force the Destroyer to retreat...

...and once the monster was back inside

its volcanic temple...

No!

They transferred the musical energy

of the crystals...

...into a single, powerful...

...rock.

That rock, the rock of Kissteria,

became the key.

By removing it,

the Destroyer would be trapped forever.

Naturally, the Crimson Witch

has been desperate to retrieve it...

...especially by Halloween night...

...when circumstances are ripe

to release the Destroyer.

Where's the rock now?

It's had many protectors over the ages.

Each one a descendant of the musical

warriors who fought so bravely.

Today these guardians are known as KISS.

You guys have it?

Yep. We used to display it

at the Hall of KISStory in the park.

But when it gets near Halloween,

we keep it with us on tour.

Wait a second.

Is this the rock?

The Detroit Rock that you received

as a gift from the city of Detroit?

That's just a cover story.

Yeah. And isn't the Destroyer

just the name of a ride?

Blasphemous!

Have you learned nothing?

The Destroyer will strike

fear into your heart.

I know. That's what the poster says.

Aah! Get her away from me.

She and her friends will do

more harm than good.

That woman is crazy.

But her powers are impressive.

You actually believe all that?

Chikara's never wrong.

Except that time she predicted

the Love Gun album would go gold.

Because it went platinum!

Yeah, baby.

Starchild!

Starchild!

I hope nothing's happened to him.

What was that?

Of all the times to be

without my flashlight.

- Aah!

- You wanna buy a KISS flashlight?

Comes with a handy key ring.

What are you doing down here?

Hey, I was just checking on the props of

the concert, and I got lost in this maze.

There it is again.

f I only stocked up on KISS batteries.

Hang on. I can use my cell phone.

Those are the props

I've been looking for.

KISS monster props,

part of the Halloween show.

House seats still available.

- That doesn't sound like a prop.

- This way.

You're leaving?

Hello? Manager in the dark.

Hello?

In here.

I got it. Ungh!

Freddie!

What is this place?

It's my special effects lab.

I thought I told you guys to stay back.

Some of us had other ideas.

Don't worry, Fred. We can dry you off.

Beth? Christine?

Okay. All right. That's good. Thank you.

I take it you didn't find the witch.

I searched this whole sector
