    Dark Horse Comics released the final teaser image for the big announcement it is set to make Wednesday night at the San Diego Comic Con.

    A quick search on Del Toro, and virus, landed us on The Strain page from Amazon…

    The visionary creator of the Academy Award-winning Pan’s Labyrinth and a Hammett Award-winning author bring their imaginations to this bold, epic novel about a horrifying battle between man and vampire that threatens all humanity. It is the first installment in a thrilling trilogy and an extraordinary international publishing event.

    The Strain

    They have always been here. Vampires. In secret and in darkness. Waiting. Now their time has come.

    In one week, Manhattan will be gone. In one month, the country.

    In two months–the world.

    So is that the big reveal? We’ll find out Wednesday!

      I really enjoyed “The Strain” and its follow up “The Fall”. Supposedly a trilogy, book 3 hasn’t surfaced yet.

      I can see them being turned into a pretty bloody good graphic novelisation.
