A skillful dissection of AB:VH #6, courtesy of Chris's Invincible Super-Blog.
Those of you that dabble in comics fandom may already be aware of Chris's Invincible Super-Blog, which offers up tastily scathing reviews, commentary, and tons of the best kind of old skool crack.
Anyway. Chris has been hilariously dissecting each issue of the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter comic series for the past few months, and it's the best kind of literary flogging.
He started out promisingly with his review of #3 (linked below):
"Yes, Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #3 hit stands yesterday, and so tonight, I'm devoting the ISB to an exhaustive, scurrilous set of notes on what may actually be the most awesomely terrible comic being put out by a major publisher today.
Grab your own copy and read along!"
Anyway. Since #6 hit the stands last week, I give you The Annotated Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #6.
The best part? Is that the creative team on the comic got linked to his entries/reviews/flogging, and apparently wrote him about his reviews. To which Chris responded:
"So! Now that I've built up a small amount of goodwill from the people who make this thing, I think it's time to completely blow it with another round of comprehensive notes on the subtle nuances and were-rat Daisy Dukes of everyone's fourth-favorite vampire hunter, now featuring even more guys in mesh tank tops than anyone could have possibly predicted."
There's bonus snark in every review about Anita's poor taste in armaments, as Chris makes her go toe-to-toe with the Punisher Armoury.
Here are all the reviews, in descending order, from #6 to #1. Seriously, I sprained a rib (and an ovary) laughing.
Enjoy!

Marvel recently took Marvel's "Civil War" comic book miniseries, erased the actual text, and replaced it with his own. Someone desperately needs to do the same with scans of these Anita comics. Mightygodking is a genius at this stuff but I doubt he's ever read the Blake series so I doubt he could supply a lot of the in-jokes we're all privy to.

(If anyone wants to see Teh Funny, I saved all of the Civil War mockery posts in memories on my LJ. I highly recommend them, they're hysterical.)

Jean-Claude's dialogue really does sound better if you do it in a James-from-Team-Rocket voice.
Although, that might just be because it makes me laugh so hard I'm crying.

No, LKH, you're not getting my money on this one. Download time, sure, but not my monies.
Silly question
So... if Anita is fandom's "fourth favorite vampire hunter," who are One through Three? ^__^
