Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter: The Laughing Corpse: Executioner #2: Because 3 Colons Are Never Enough

[quizzicalsphinx.livejournal.com]

Chris's Invincible Super-Blog updated with the latest annotated AB:VH:tLC:E. It's like an early Christmas gift--for us!

In the commentary, Chris picks up on a couple of points this comm's touched upon before, such as LKH's odd foible for believing that she invented the "sexy paranormal" genre. On her main site, AB:VH:tLC:E is touted as "a hugely successful graphic novel from Marvel - the first sexy paranormal comic ever!" (Of course, from the structure of that sentence, it may be implying that Marvel is the "first sexy paranormal comic ever.")

Mod note: Hey, can you please edit this to add some content for discussion, or just some of your thoughts? It doesn't have to be much, two or three sentences.

Non modly: ugh, I am so behind on my AB:VH comics. /o\ I feel like I should get Chris a fruit basket for braving these, because there are times when they physically hurt to flick through.

Noted and supplied, cap'n!

Thankyou! :D

Yay! I just got home from work and I'm thinking of getting pizza, so this really could not have come at a better time. *gets comfortable*

Where is the sexy? I see no sexy these comics. The first AB books themselves were sexier than these are.

But that's Team LKH. Keep insisting you're the first and that the sex scenes are hot. Then, when people call you on your bull, stick your fingers in your ears and go, "Lalala, I can't hear you. Besides I meant something totally different!"

We are clearly too vanilla to understaaaaaaaaad the sexy.

(Not related to the post, but I had to comment that I love your icon! I had always laughed at that particular moment in Sword in the Stone. XD)

(Thank you! I used to have another one of Mim doing the hip-wiggle from the same scene, captioned "Shake it like a Polaroid.")

[ashek-thordin.livejournal.com]

(Hilarious!! I'd love one with her doing the action from the "Siiiiiilvery voice!" line. That whole section of the scene is just wonderful fun! Did you get the icons anywhere in particular or did you make them yourself? *is wondering if she may snag it for herself?*)

(Will do! Thank you so much! ^_^)

I think the fact he's kind is what makes it even funnier. I mean, you can be a vicious prick about it, and possibly divert attention away from the stupid, or be nice, and center the attention all on the stupid.

Pretty Much the entire female cast of Chaos Comics...
JML's Dawn...
Top Cow's Witchblade...

If you want Vampires?
Interview with a Vampire and Dark Shadows had Comic Adaptations WAY before LKH did

I noticed on Linkara's 2010 preview he is going to take on Anita Blake as well...

EEEEEE omg. I just confessed my love of Linkara on my main blog, too. Now I can love him even more.

[yaoihuntresse.livejournal.com]

And I'm the one that sent the mini-series to him, honest. So I'm glad the $20 I shelled out was worth it.

[entropyastaroth.livejournal.com]

Well done! I really, really look forward to see Linkara take that on.

First sexy comic, huh? I guess I can throw away all these Aria issues and variant covers.

[yaoihuntresse.livejournal.com]

God, her dialogue isn't even that good and she has to keep it going for endless pages? I could let Garth Ennis off on that, but not her. The only good thing is seeing Anita keep strangled and bitch-slapped.
