Anita Blake: The Graphic Novel
...apparently I've been living under a rock, or something; I only just discovered that apparently there's an Anita Blake graphic novel in the works.

Bzuh?

For your amusement, here's the Amazon.com link.

Here's a forum discussion on the subject.

And here's an interview with LKH.

(FWIW, am not a fan of LKH; have never read her books, although that hasn't stopped me from enjoying -- if that's the word -- the related wank and the excerpts of truly execrable prose I've seen. This came to my attention when I saw the promo cards for it at the local comics shop today, and I felt the need to share.)

	Hailed by critics as “An R-Rated Buffy” and “Monstrously Entertaining,” the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter novels have developed an ever-expanding fanbase as each novel outsells the last. ...I have no words. Except maybe NO WAY IN HELL the Anita Blake books are R-rated. NC-17, yes. R, no. Which also explains the popularity. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	The first...7 or so? are R-rated and not NC-17. Then they turned into a bad pornfest. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I think this was mentioned on one of the communties before, not sure if it was fandom_lounge or one of the wank communities. There was a lot of discussion on how the hell they were going to manage adapting the later books because they're pretty much all pr0n. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	It's spreading!!!!! Someone needs to put a stop to this. To Laurell K. Hamilton, I tell her to cease and desist and look at my icon (taken from lurker32-- thanks!). (Reply to this)(Thread)

	No, no, she needs to shut the fuck up and stop writing porn. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I wouldn't mind it so much if it was at least good porn. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Hm. At the end of the interview it says they've only contracted for the first three. I bet if it sells they'll do the rest, though. (Reply to this)

	I don't think I want to get this for our library. We're not getting "Lost Girls" either. (Reply to this)
