Rating: - Satisfying sequel to the best vampire comic on the market
With the hero of the first 30 Days of Night out of commission, you wondered if the series could continue to grow in sequels. While not as large a character in the first book, author Steve Niles has managed to turn Eben's wife, Stella Olemaun, into an equally compelling protagonist in Dark Days. It's almost hard to recognize this now sexy but rugged heroine as the same simple small town deputy who was once scared to death in the first book, but she has managed to become the vampire fiction version ...

Rating: - Biting Sequel
After the film adaptation of 30 Days of Night received only so-so reviews, instead of waiting for the movie on DVD, I decided to take a look at the original comics/graphic novels created by Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith.

Rating: - Dark Days doesn't disappoint
A strong sequel in the 30 Days of Night series. Niles and Templesmith once again prove their talents in the graphic horror genre remain razor-sharp. Though the book is certain to satisfy even the most hardcore fan's appetite for fleshrending monsters of the night, the compelling, character-driven story and award winning art makes this a "must read" for even the causal reader.

In Dark Days, readers find themselves treated to some of the same people moving through a new story arch with the same stylized artwork, showcasing ... Read More
Rating: - Brilliant
I'm not going to go into a long-winded review. I just want to say that I really enjoyed this graphic novel. Great story and great graphics. I also enjoyed 30 days of Night and Return to Barrow. I am a 36 year old female, so that will give you an idea of the difference types of people that can enjoy this series.
AND, doesn't the guy on the cover look like that horrible little voodoo doll from that old old old movie. The one who came to life when a necklace was removed from it and chased this woman all over her ... Read More
