I think I was just agast at the idea of Edward even remotely being considered cool, much less being placed even close to Wolverine in that catagory. Every other literary character that was ever been created and ever will be created could cease to exsist at this very moment just leaving Edward and he would still be beyond lame. Speaking as a young woman, I'm with Templedog. If you want a decent vampire, go with Anne Rice.

While I enjoyed both, I prefered Anne Rice, mainly because I enjoyed the historical takes and elements on the vampire's history. That said, her later novels were overall religious, so fair comment to jrpbsp. SOrry, sniktsnakt never could stand buffy.
