Dark Horse have long specialised in film and TV adaptations, with the results normally being of distinctly mediocre quality. Now here comes Let Me In: Crossroads, a comic book prequel to a film that’s a remake of the Swedish film Let The Right One In, which in turn was adapted from the novel of the same name. It’s a metatextual world we live in.
