The upcoming remake of Swedish vampire film "Let The Right One In" is getting a comic book prequel from Dark Horse Comics, and two covers from the project have arrived online featuring the likeness of star Chloe Moretz.
Written by Marc Andreyko ("Manhunter") with interior art by Patric Reynolds ("Serenity: Float Out") and covers by Sean Phillips ("Sleeper"), the four-issue series is titled "Let Me In: Crossroads." io9 has posted a pair of Phillips' covers form the series, as well as a short synopsis of where it will fit with the plot of the film.
"Let Me In: Crossroads" is scheduled to hit shelves in December, just a few months after the October 1 release date for the film.
Official solicit text:
Being forced to spend eternity as a vampire-trapped in the mind and body of a child, with slaughter the only recourse for survival-is torture enough. But when Abby finds herself faced with a ruthless real-estate tycoon willing to do anything to get at the property she and her caretaker call home, far more monstrous torments await. In a small community torn apart by vicious men who are consumed by greed, wrath, and envy, she will learn which deadly sin is truly deadliest.
