Media Reviews
.. .a short, sharp shocker of a horror tale with an original premise and a Matterhorn-sized mountain of tension. -Maxim

The comic in your hands has much of the raw, even brutal energy of a horror movie from the good old days. Short, sharp and unforgiving. It's got a catchy title, a wonderfully clever, but simple idea at its chilly heart, and a narrative that starts at a run and never slows down. -- Clive Barker

Writer Steve Niles plays on common fears of isolation, darkness, and monsters in a story that's more chilling than its locale. A good writer could extrapolate any one of these fears into a thrilling story, but
Niles succeeds in pushing all of these buttons with the right frequency to produce a story that's not just chilling, but downright scary. --Jim Johnson, Comics Buyer's Guide

Above all else, 30 Days of Night reads like a horror movie--a great horror movie. If you thirst for something that's guaranteed to scare the pants off you, you've gotta pick this up. But take my advic --read it with the lights on. --Casey Seijas, Wizard Magazine
