Dark Horse Announces 'Let Me In' Comic

Dark Horse Comics and Hammer Films announced today they are partnering to create a series of co-branded original graphic novels and comic books.


Their first collaboration will be inspired by Hammer Films’ upcoming suspense thriller Let Me In. The film, based on the 2008 Tomas Alfredson directed Swedish film Lat den ratte komma in a.k.a. Let the Right One In, is being produced by the British film brand Hammer Films, and written and directed by Matt Reeves (Cloverfield).

While the storyline of the companion graphic novel is being kept under wraps, Dark Horse Comics and writer Marc Andreyko (Manhunter, Predators) are working with Hammer to create a comic that will incorporate some of the film’s characters and mythology with some fresh themes.

The Let Me In graphic novel will be distributed in stores in conjunction with its theatrical release from Overture Films in October 2010.
