Kolchak Night Stalker: Get Of Belial (Kolchak the Nightstalker)

Summary: Comic adaptation of a lost episode of Kolchak
Review: After Moonstone's initial KOLCHAK graphic novel(an adaptation of the NIGHTSTALKER TV movie) they tackled a lost episode of the classic tv show. One wonders why this episode never aired, probably something to do with the Union element, the art and coloring are solid but the story really makes this book kick. You can almost hear Darrin McGavin's voice, the dialogue is so dead on. Nicely square bound and free of advertising the Kolchak graphic novel's from Moonstone are shaping up as a nice replacement to the now unavailable television show. My only complaint is a couple of typos (Kolcac?) Recommended

Summary: A glimpse of the season that was not to be.
Review: Moonstone's second Kolchak: The Night Stalker graphic novel is based on an unproduced script for the show's never to be second season. When the series was cancelled the scripts were shelved. Now fans can get an idea of the shows that might have been if Kolchak: The Night Stalker had been allowed a second season.

Carl is sent to West Virginia (Winship County to be exact) to cover a tension filled strike at a local mine. When the mine owner is savagely murdered the Sheriff thinks that it might be a few strike frustrated miners working out their differences in a more brutal fashion. But the type of wounds don't hint at a beating, it's more like a mauling. When two more people are murdered, Kolchak begins to dig a bit deeper and what he uncovers is an evil far older than that of mere mankind.

Again Moonstone shows a clear understanding of the tone, character, and stories that have made Kolchak: The Night Stalker such a cult favorite. The visuals are almost photographic in capturing the look of the series and thedialog rings true. These adaptations and original stories are essential for any Kolchak fan. Highly recommended.
