Marvel Comics is adding a killer character to its stable of antiheroes. Beginning in February, Dexter Morgan, literature and cable TV's favorite serial-killing blood-spatter expert, stars in an all-new, all-murderous tale in Marvel's five-issue Dexter miniseries penned by Jeff Lindsay, the author of Darkly Dreaming Dexter — the novel that spawned Showtime's Emmy-winning Dexter drama series.

Hmmm. Sounds like it will be more like J.L.'s novels, which for a comic could be a real treat since in a lot of ways it's different than Showtime's version. Might check it out! Thanks for the news!
ReplyDeleteThe novels (past the first one) are downright terrible, so I'm not exactly thrilled about that.
ReplyDeleteThere are parts of them I like (like a whole family of sociopaths aspect makes it all a bit more comical) and parts that I don't . Personally I agree that Showtime's version is MUCH better, but I am willing to give the comics a chance.
