Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter in Guilty Pleasures

Marvel Comics brought Laurell K. Hamilton's bestselling urban fantasy to sequential art with this 12-issue adaptation of her first Anita Blake novel. Scripted by Hamilton alongside Jess Ruffner and Stacie Ritchie, with dynamic visuals from Brett Booth and Ron Lim, the series plunges readers into a supernatural St. Louis where the vampire-hunting animator navigates a murder investigation entangled with the city's undead power structures. It remains a key entry for fans of the prose series and a striking example of early 2000s comic horror-fantasy.
