Porn starAdult entertainment icon Jenna Jameson is now a comic book character. The comic is being produced by Virgin Comics. The new series will be called Shadow Hunter and will be in comic shops and online in December, 2007. Jenna has a new website for the series, called JennaComix.com.
From the official release:

Shadow Hunter is the story of a provocative superheroine who survives a brush with death only to find herself fighting the legions of hell for her very soul. Cover art for the first issue has been created by Greg Horn, a top illustrator of comic books and video games. The story, while provocative and sexy, contains no nudity and is intended for a mainstream audience.



“Jenna Jameson is a cultural force,” said Virgin Comics CEO Sharad Devarajan. “She is an entrepreneur who is taking the taboo to the mainstream and has built an indusattempt acircular her brand.”
“I’m thrilled to be collaborating with Virgin to bring this story to life, first as comics and eventually in film and other formats,” said Jenna Jameson. “Working with comics is creatively liberating - everything is possible. My character is sultry, sexy and kicks ass!”



“Jenna brings a defiance and edge to everything she does, said Gotham Chopra, Chief

Creative Officer of Virgin Comics. “She’s a provocateur and there’s no doubt that our creative team at Virgin is going to have a blast collaborating with her. I can assure you every artist we have in our studio is vying to get assigned to this project!”



San Diego Comic-Con is preparing for record crowds when Jenna makes her very first appearance at this event that attracts more than 100,000 fans. Jenna will be speaking about Shadow Hunter and signing autographs for fans on Saturday afternoon, July 28 at 4:30 PM. Images from the series will be available from the Virgin Comics booth at the San Diego Convention Center.

Will it be a success? Or will her fans be disappointed that there is no nudity and no adult entertainment-worthy adventures? Because we’re thinking that Jenna Jameson fans are looking for something beautiful specific in a comic book, and it’s not something “mainstream”. On the other hand, she will no doubt convince many people at Comic-Con to give the series a try. We’re sure she can be very persuasive when she wants to.
