Dexter: Early Cuts

This is of course a pun.

"Cuts" can refer to cinematic cuts, in which case this would mean, "Dexter: Early Versions". That's because these webisodes can be considered the prequels to the Dexter mythology.

"Cuts" can also refer to wounds, in which case this would mean, "Dexter: Early Kills". Again, that's because these webisodes can be considered the prequels to the Dexter mythology. I think I just said that.

Don't expect any fluid animation, though. This looks more like a moving storyboard than anything else. Okay, maybe a moving graphic novel. Just to be more literary.

Anyway, since these are webisodes, then it would be nice to watch them on the web, right?

Alex Timmons, October 2003

Drawn by Kyle Baker, this follows an evil Gulf War veteran sniper who does not distinguish between combatants and non-combatants.

Gene Marshall, June 1993

This one is about a pyromaniac who loves burning down buildings. But since he burns them down with people inside it, he has moved up from pyromania to arson. This story comes first chronologically, and here we are introduced to Dexter's preferred method of disposal: burial at sea. Drawn by Andres Vera Martinez.

Cindy Landon, March 2004

Drawn by Ty Templeton, this one centers around a slutty bitch known as the Black Widow. Not Black Mamba, as that refers to Kobe Bryant.
