30 Days of Night: Bloodsucker Tales #[nn]

This 2005 IDW collection from the 30 Days of Night universe announces itself with a genuinely unsettling close-up: a shadowed figure in dark sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat, a cigarette dangling from scarred lips — and reflected in those lenses, a pale, red-eyed vampire staring right back. The golden, gritty palette gives the image a fever-dream quality that perfectly suits the series' brand of cold-blooded horror. A solid anthology package for fans who want more of this world's particular brand of dread.
