30 Days of Night: Return to Barrow

The 21st century has seen a horror comics renaissance, and it all started with Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith's frostbitten vampire saga 30 Days of Night. The original three issue series spawned a major motion picture and grabbed the attention of thousands of fans longing for an innovative tale of terror. In Return to Barrow, Niles and Templesmith bring us, once again, to the snow-crusted Alaskan town where the setting sun ignites a new winter of terror for the beleagured townspeople. Brian Kitka is desperate to find out what happened to his brother three years ago, and becoming the new sheriff may get him the answers he needs. But some things are best left in the dark, and Brian will need more than just the help of a few old friends if anyone's going to be alive come sunrise.
