Awesome post! Thanks for the recap on the comics. Yay! I don't get them so I appreciate your recaps. Also, the post is very funny. Loved the snarky comments.
And you are dead on with how lame Anita looks. On one hand, I like that she's not a one-woman show and needed Dolph and Edward's help. The part that makes Anita annoying, IMO, is that she doesn't realize she couldn't have done it without Dolph, Edward or even late-for-dinner Manny. (Maybe Manny had to look bad because he would rather eat dinner with his wife than go on this door-to-door scavenger hunt with Anita.) Anita has to be all "I'm SO special cuz I got the powahz to kill the helpless vampires." In all the books I have yet to see how her necromancy has helps her kill vamps more effectively than anyone else, but whatever.
I'm kind of confused about what First Death is though. Is this supposed to be before Guilty Pleasures? Wasn't Valentine in GP, so he survived Edward's flamethrower? Gah. Sorry, I should know better than to hope the stories make sense.
