Continuing tonight's theme of Virgin Comics-related posts, here's ( Jenna Jameson's Shadow Hunter. )

Full disclosure time: I love Virgin Comics, and I write about them a lot on this livejournal, which is why, I would assume, somebody at Virgin decided to very generously send me some free swag, including shiny copies of the latest Snakewoman and Voodoo Child issues. As I am a Snakewoman fan and had been mulling over trying Voodoo Child solely because yes I do like Nicholas Cage, this made my day. And of course, I would be remiss if I didn't return the favor and write some comicly reviews here in exchange for my swag.

Second full disclosure time: My package from Virgin arrived two weeks ago. So why has it taken me so long to write this long-overdue blog post? Well, because of Snakewoman. I love this series, but it is a very difficult series for me to write about in a coherent fashion. Snakewoman is a challenging comic: challenging to read, challenging to digest, and definitely challenging to review on a blog. I actually have two finished-but-never-posted Snakewoman entries on my harddrive already. I didn't post them because they were too rambling and incoherent. But I figured that if I was ever going to make a Snakewoman post on this blog, now is the time. I've been struggling to write this post for over two weeks, but eventually I just gotta do it, right?

So here goes. ( Behind the cut, some large images and mild spoilers. )

Okay, that's enough for tonight. Once again, I owe a huge thank-you to Virgin for sending me copies of Voodoo Child and Snakewoman to review. Thanks!




Edited on 6/17/08 to add: My thoughts about the ending of Snake Woman, here. Well, I liked it until I got to the actual ending. Sigh.
