30 Days of Night #1
In the frozen silence of Barrow, Alaska, as the sun vanishes behind the horizon, something unnatural stirs—cellphones lie in ash, and the town is cut off from the world. A stranger, arrested and then vanishing through iron bars with impossible ease, is gunned down by a pair of deputies who don’t seem quite human. Written by Steve Niles and brought to chilling life by Ben Templesmith’s stark, atmospheric art, *30 Days of Night* #1 sets a pulse-pounding tone with a haunting blend of isolation and dread. The cover, by Ashley Wood, captures the eerie stillness of a town on the edge.
