Re: vampire novels
Date: 2011-11-24 12:51 am (UTC)It just ocurred to me that I also have a comic called "The Vampire's Christmas" (by Mike Dubisch & Joseph Michael Linsner) that I enjoyed because the protagonist is a grumpy, misanthropic, absolutely un-glamorous vampire guy who was bitten outside a Sex Pistols concert in 1977. I usually warn that a pedophile appears in the story, nothing graphic but he gets his punishment when trying to kidnap a young boy and, well, no need to inflict that on unknowing people in case they have triggers. On the plus side, I was happy to see several plus-sized women in the comic, the art is pretty and the story is, albeit cynical and black-humoured at times, actually fairly heart-warming and funny.
