Dabel Bros. to Publish "Dark-Hunter" Manga

Popular vampire novels get manga treatment in adaptation

Dabel Bros. Publishing recently announced plans to adapt bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter novels as manga-style comics, targeting a 2009 release for the adaptations of the first two books in the series, Night Pleasures and Night Embrace.

Joshua Hale Fialkov (Elk's Run, Cyblade) will script the adaptations, with Claudia Campos providing the art.

From the Sherrilyn Kenyon's official website:

In the world of the Dark-Hunters nothing is ever as it seems. Life and death both take on a whole knew meaning as this immortal cadre of warriors fight to protect mankind from those creatures and demons who would prey on us.

I'm really happy for Sherrilyn, but as an avid reader of her work, I am slightly disappointed to see my favorite characters turned into comic book characters. I will definitely not be purchasing them - I would hate to have my personal visions of hot, dark and sexy Dark-Hunters turned into Japanime style every time I read one of her books. I do hope this endeavor keeps the Dark-Hunter novels coming though!

despite the printing issues, I think its great and the treatment was done well.

the art is done well. I thought it was fun. And I was please that over exaggeration technique wasn't used.
