Quick question:

Why does Guilty Pleasures take Marvel 12 issues to adapt but Pride and Prejudice only takes five?

Also, why do all of the Bennet sisters have that Greg Land-esque "please jizz in my mouth" face? Hell, Mrs. Bennet kind of has it. Ew.

Also, that shouldn't bother me more than the horrible, condescending cover but it does.

Answer: Because Guilty Pleasures will net the company seven times the revenue.

After all, how many sexy vampires are in Pride and Prejudice? At least this version has zombies going for it.

I don't know if the sales of GP were THAT good, but they're good enough that they're dragging out The Laughing Corpse over at least two mini-series, so that's something.

I thought the TwiMoms said they liked Edward because he was like Mr. Darcy. I don't know how this is, but ...

Well, from experience I can say that many attention-starved geek collectors made sure the bookstore saved copies of GP for them and they picked them up religiously. I never had anyone even ask for P&P comics. According LKH, sales have been good.

As far as TwiMoms... Oh, dear. Edward is an immoral homicidal sociopath bounty hunter. = Mr. Darcy? Personally, I don't think so.

Edward Cullen, not THAT Edward. :)

OH. Well, that makes a lot more sense. ^_^;
