Dark Hunger is a short story by Christine Feehan adapted into a manga-style graphic novel by some guy named Zid. It involves a Carpathian, who is in every way a vampire except for the fact that he's a good guy and hunts vampires, and a shapeshifting jaguar-woman, who loves her sisters and despises men -- until, of course, she meets the Carpathian.

So far as stories involving lycanthropes and blood-sucking fiends go, this is about the dullest I've ever read. Neither Riordan nor Juliette has more than a thimbleful of personality, and the threats they face never amount to more than a whisper of tension or conflict. On the other hand, you've got endless, plodding lines of dialogue about lifemates and forever love, and some of it is presented in dramatic black dialogue bubbles that ensure you know just how very important they are. Meanwhile, the art by the guy with the made-up name is drab, expressionless and utterly lifeless.

So, why should you pick this book up? You know, I can't think of a single good reason. Want mine?
