Marley Davidson (Sometimes referred to as "Marley Davidson: Bronx Exorcist") is a fictional comic book character created by writer and comic book artist Sandy Jimenez. It made its first appearance on June 15, 1995 in the self-titled independent comic book "Marley Davidson: Bronx Exorcist" which chronicled the exploits of a Jamaican ex-priest, operating as an exorcist and monster hunter in New York City.

Typical Marley Davidson stories involve classic renditions of undead monsters like vampires and werewolves as the chief villains but generally as part of conspiratorial plots to undermine and exploit the poor.

Marley Davidson last appeared in the fourth and last issue of the series in 1999. A full length animated feature went into production in February 2007, after the completion of an animated short in 2006.[1]
