Comments on: Marvel Sneak Peek: Anita Blake-Vampire Hunter: The First Death #1 http://www.majorspoilers.com/archives/1586.htm/ We know you love comics. We do, too.

It's so good, I *almost* think it came first and Hamilton wrote a novelization based on it. :p Stacey Ritchie has stuck closely to the prose and its amazing how well the book translates into comic form. Jess Ruffner takes over in Issue 6 and takes more liberties, which I feel makes the comic lose some of Hamilton's "tone". But I'll have to read more before I can truly judge. Brett Booth's art took some getting used to, but he's amazing with facial expressions. I love the colouring work by Imaginary Friends too. As for First Death, it looks really promising. The interaction between Anita and the RPIT team is true to the novels - can't wait for more. Based on these 5 pages alone, I think J Green does a much better job then J Ruffner.
