Kolchak the Night Stalker: He's BACK! This is the on that started it all! The inspiration behind the "X-Files"! TV's first paranormal investigator, reporter Carl Kolchak, is drawn into a series of unusual murders in Las Vegas, where all the victims suffer from "severe blood loss". What is really prowling the streets of this gambling mecca? It's Kolchak versus the rest of the world, as he fights for the truth, while battling corruption, ignorance, terror, and ultimately, himself. This first book is an adaptation of the novel, on which one of the most watched TV movies of all time is based. Kolchak's creator, Jeff Rice himself, scripts the story!

It couldn't happen here...could it?,

This review is from: Kolchak Night Stalker (Paperback)
Even thirty years later Jeff Rice's concept of a seasoned newspaper reporter facing down a real honest to goodness vampire has lost none of its freshness, and down on his luck reporter Carl Kolchak remains an inspired creation. This adaptation of the novel reads like a cliff notes version of the tv movie also based on the novel (albeit with some spicier subject matter) and I found myself wishing that more time had been spent developing the characters...would a two-parter adaptation been asking too much? That quibble aside (and yes, the binding on the book could have been much, much better) this is an essential addition to every Kolchak fan's collection. Kolchak lives!

This review is from: Kolchak Night Stalker (Paperback)
but only Kolchak, known as the Night Stalker because this reporter does his best work at night, wants the public to know it. The cops, the FBI, the city government wants him to drop the idea that a killer, who also seems to drain the bodies of blood, is a vampire. Yet in the end Kolchak will not only prove homself right, but he'll be the person to save Las Vegas! With the help of his girlfriend and her co-workers.Great artwork and its wonderful to see a whole comic book in full color. Just splashes of color all over the pages! While the book looks very slim it holds one full story and has lots of background, details and characters. The only problem I had with this book is the way the binding used up part of the page to attach the pages together. In other words, some sentences and part of the artwork was trapped in the fold and can't be seen. Bummer.
