The Strain

Based on Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan's novel trilogy, this two-issue series from Panini Deutschland adapts the initial chapter of their vampire apocalypse saga. Published in 2013 and 2014, it follows a team of experts in New York City as they confront a terrifying, parasitic strain of vampirism that spreads with chilling efficiency. While a condensed adaptation, this German release offers a direct comic-book entry point into the story's early, grounded horror.
