Twilight fans will be offered copies of 30 Days of Night by IDW Publishing at San Diego Comic-Con.
Copies of Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling novels and the graphic novel adaptations can be traded for a volume from IDW’s 30 Days of Night series at the publisher’s booth under its ‘Sparkles for Blood’ promotion.
“Real horror fans have watched vampires systematically turned into wimpy fodder for years now. It’s time to fight back,” said 30 Days of Night creator Steve Niles.
“I’m happy to be working with IDW on the ‘Sparkles for Blood’ event. Hopefully, working together we can put an end to this nightmare.”
Niles created the property with artist Ben Templesmith in 2002. It has gone on to spawn numerous spinoff miniseries from the original creative team and various other creators.
The tale of vampires taking over a remote Alaskan town was also adapted into a movie starring Josh Hartnett and Melissa George.
Niles will return to the property later this year to write a new ongoing 30 Days of Night series alongside artist Sam Kieth.
Ha! That is freaking awesome!
