was a three-issue horror comic book mini-series written by Steve Niles, illustrated by Ben Templesmith and published by IDW Publishing in 2002. All three parties co-own the property. The series takes place in Barrow, Alaska, so far north that during the winter the sun does not rise for 67 days. Vampires, being vulnerable to sunlight, discover and then flocked to Barrow to take advantage of the prolonged darkness to feast upon the town's inhabitants. Initially an unsuccessful film pitch, the series became a breakout success story for Steve Niles, whose previous works had received relatively little attention. It was also the first full-length work by co-creator Ben Templesmith. The series became a surprise hit, revitalized the horror comics genre and jump-started the careers of writer Steve Niles and artist Ben Templesmith and has been followed by numerous sequel series, all of which, including extras, are included in this compilation.
