Let the Right One In is one of my favourite novels of the last few years and both film adaptations are spectacular, so obviously, this comic book was a no-brainer purchase, but was almost certainly going to be disappointing. Surprisingly, though, it wasn’t disappointing; this is a great representation of the characters from the Americanised version of the story, portrayed through the comic book format. They look like the actors who play them, but in that Buffy style where they also look different enough to not be jarring constantly. Marc Andreyko is clearly a fan of the material, and of horror in general, penning a tale that is deeply disturbing and gritty while grounded in reality and the reality of the story. The art by Patric Reynolds is wonderful, too; it’s a scratchy, crime-noir style with just enough edge to achieve originality and flair. This is a must-read if you’re a fun of the novel or the films; a frightening and poetic look at the world of vampires.

Story: 5 - Excellent
