Comic Franchise[]

Main article: Dexter Comics

Jeff Lindsay worked in 2012 with Marvel Comics to publish a five-issue limited series for Dexter, based on the continuity of the novels rather than the TV series for legal reasons. In the same manner, actor Michael C. Hall's likeness was not used in the comic series. The series was simply titled Dexter.

He returned on 2013 to work along with Marvel again to publish a sequel to his comic series, the new volume titled Dexter: Down Under. Lindsay worked as the writer for both volumes.

Trivia[]

  • At first, Lindsay wanted to name his first book Pinocchio Bleeds, the name that his middle daughter suggested, but his publisher disagreed. It was then titled Darkly Dreaming Dexter.
