Who can resist more vampires in the snow? I didn't realize this was volume 4. I read the first volume a few years ago and thought it was pretty good. If you liked the first one, then you'll enjoy this one, too.

It's been over a year since I read 30 Days of Night: Dark Days, the second volume in the 30 Days of Night series, so I figured it was about time I hopped back on the bandwagon. After the first two graphic novels impressed me, I had some really high hopes for this third book.Barrow is rebuilding, though it's a shadow of its former self, still heavily scarred from the murderous rampage of a vampire clan that descended on the remote Alaskan town. The new sheriff is the brother of a murdered residen...

All-out war in Barrow... loved it ;)Great story, good characters, art splendid as always.../Review

Compared to v1 and v2 I find the story better. It starts kind of slowly and finishes fast. Much more action. The end was... well, expected. To be honest, I think the whole series is over rated. Or maybe I set my expectations too high...

My first graphic novel! Probably should have started with Book 1, but a trusted source recommended this as a good intro into what graphics can achieve. Indeed, it is a wonderful blend of written and visual mediums.The attention to atmosphere is stellar. I can't get enough of the gloomy, frost-bitten color scheme. Much of the characters are disfigured by shadows and inconsistent moonlight. This makes it hard to discern who's human and who's vampire. So creepy! Danger lurks in every frame and when...

In brief, a Return to Barrow is a recycling of what made the first volume of this franchise novel without much improving on Niles and Templesmith's weaknesses as a writer and artist (respectively). Undead bloodsuckers continue making pilgrimages to Barrow during its annual month of polar nights, some to pig out on the town's residents who for some reason didn't move after the first few massacres, others with the intention of scouring the earth of these people who could unmask vampires as real th...

Left me bored and unimpressed. The end sucked too.Nothing happens. Just another year of Oh they're coming again, the world thinks we're crazy and liars but vampires exist. Let's prepare to fight them off and kill em all. Vampires have guns too. Oh my. What terribly smart vamps and what a shock. Oh remember the main characters back from the first one? Remember the dramatic death which closed the whole story? Remember how cliche that was? Remember from the previous volume how we brought him back b...

3.5- I enjoyed the story and the art but it ended waaay too abruptly

As indicated by the title, this book features a return to Barrow, the scene of the original story. It centers around Brian Kitka who is the brother of someone killed in the original attack. Despite a book detailing what happened, Barrow has been on its own fending off the vampires year after year because the general public still doesn't think they exist. Brian has second thoughts shortly after arriving but ends up stuck and has to join the town in defending itself against a large group of vampir...

This is the last of this series I'm going to review because it's the last of the series available in my local public library and I'm not into it enough to purchase and collect (which is not to say that I didn't enjoy it).Horror is very difficult to do well - on film, in comics, in short stories, or book length. There are so many different definitions of what horror really is for one thing, for another there are there are so many tropes out there that it's easy to be lazy about it. I love horror

In Return to Barrow, several things return to Barrow, the story, the vampires and the Sheriff. The town is ready though, after being attacked every year they have figured out their defenses and think they can protect themselves against the Vampires. But this year, the Vampires come in force. Can they survive another 30 days of night?I just don’t understand why the Vampires keep attacking Barrow. Especially after being attacked continuously every year and being driven back every year by a better

The 30 Days of Night saga comes to its circle! This is the third TPB in the series.Creative Team:Writer & Co-creator: Steve NilesIllustrator & Co-creator: Ben TemplesmithLetterer: Robbie Robbins RETURN TO BARROW Three years later, Barrow, Alaska is still on the map.Humans have lots of guts or they’re simply too stubborn……but the thing is that Barrow, Alaska, is again a living town, a pale shadow in comparison to the original numbers of population, but the humans are back and they are making

I really like these books! The artwork is just wonky enough to not be terrifying. It looks as if he takes a photo of the very middle of a face (nose,lips,chin) and then animates over that. I love the look of it. I can't wait to get the rest.

The story doesn't win any prizes with me, but it's a quick read that expands the story with new characters and a pretty major development which might just move the fight away from Barrow.William Kitka was killed in Barrow, Alaska. His brother Brian returns to the town as its sheriff and wants to investigate William and his family's demise. It looks like William killed his family, then himself, but Brian is convinced that's not the case. He wanted to leave town with his son Marcus before the sun

I can never get the order of these goddamned things right 🙄 Apparently this is volume 4. I missed that detail, as the cover doesn’t say it in the digital edition.This was alright. Artwork always shines with the core series, but the lingering mystery is resolved so fast at the tail end that it seems anti-climactic. The death toll is always so high death loses meaning. I think the original luster of this series has long-since worn off for me. It is good, but the hype leaves a bitter taste in my mo...

The world doesn't believe the horrific events at Barrow actually took place, the inhabitants of the rebuilt town are the only ones that know the truth and every year they prepare the defences for the 30 days of night. A steel fence surrounds the town and watch towers give the impression of a prison camp but when the vampires come, the town mobilises as one to fight the horde.Templesmith's artwork sets the same haunting atmosphere and is as good as ever, however its all starting to feel a little

Returning to environment of Barrow, Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith move back to the where they have the most focus and where they were the most original. The color work here and textures works better than in Dark Days. Although the characters are new to the reader and have less depth by and large than in than Dark Days, the environments and enclosure really aids the story. That said, this story feels too much like a close re-rendering of the first story, hitting most of the same notes. Dark Day...

If you ever had to read essay written by 7th graders, you've read far better material than this book. The story line is exactly the kind of dark stuff little, immature 7th graders would love. The character development is non-existent. The plot is imbecilic. The episodes jump from one thing to another without transition. New names and characters suddenly appear. One guy suddenly starts speaking German. At least the illustrations are just as bad as the writing so you can have every bd evperience y...

Again, I don't want to give away any of the original story line, but I love this vampire series. It is hardcore, raw, and violent but also romantic and poignant as well. The first volume is still the best because it was so surprising and perfect - though I am still enjoying the follow up volumes to Stella and Eben's original story. I've noticed that quite a few people haven't liked the additional volumes adding to Barrow's original story, but I like the new characters and twists and turns that a...

* Dear God, why are all the humans walking around with big toes where their heads should be? I'm kind of rooting for the vampires, if only to prevent this genetic mutation from spreading beyond Barrow.* More jokes, please. 30 DAYS works better when it's not taking itself so seriously.* Kansas City!* ... oh, Kansas City.* I don't think this is a fair representation of Swope Park, okay. * VAMPIRES WITH GUNS! Scarier than you'd think.* Stelllllaaaaa!* This art, though. Easily the most horrifying th...
