Dark Horse announces The Strain: The Night Eternal

Following up on the original Strain and it’s sequel The Fall, the third chapter of the comics saga debuts with The Strain: The Night Eternal.

It’s been two years since the Master’s plan succeeded and a near apocalypse coated the world in darkness. Now able to roam freely, the Master’s legion of vampires rule the world—a horrifying police state where humans are harvested for blood. As humanity despairs, Dr. Ephraim Goodweather and an unlikely team of heroes continue their fight against extinction, all the while hoping to unlock the secret to the Master’s demise. The final chapter in the Strain Trilogy, the series that put a terrifying twist on the vampire genre, begins here.

There isn’t a vampire fiction out there that is as stunningly unique as The Strain. Its bizarre take on bloodsucking lore has really caught on with fans, carrying the popularity of The Strain from novels, to comics, and now to TV.

The third part of the overall tale will debut with the The Strain: The Night Eternal shortly after the show premiers on FX channel this this August. And speaking of which, it’s going to be a big year for the Guillermo Del Toro-helmed property overall.

This July will also see the release of a special hardcover edition of the first series- entitled simply The Strain. The hardcover book will top off at 272 pages and land in comic stores on July 9th for $29.99 USD (yes, really). Also that month, The Strain vol. 4: The Fall will arrive on the shelves. This collected volume of the series wraps up the second series of the book and will be $19.99 USD when it lands on July 2nd.
