    Barrow, Alaska is the northernmost inhabited town in North America. The sun doesn’t set from May to August, and it doesn’t rise from November to December.  It is this November to December time when the town is in total darkness that our story takes place.  A group of vampires decide that Barrow would make a perfect place for 30 days of serious bloodletting and it is up to the town’s sheriff and his deputy wife to try to save the populace.   30 Days of Night should be considered a core of any horror graphic novel collection.   It serves as an excellent example of combining strong writing and excellent art work to tell the tale.   Contains Violence and gore.
