Kolchak Night Stalker Trade Paperback TPB 2 Terror Within Moonstone Horror NEW

Cover by: Don Kramer

Kolchak: The Night Stalker is an American
television series that aired on ABC during the 1974 – 1975 season. Kolchak: The
Night Stalker was created by Jeff Rice. It featured a fictional Chicago
newspaper reporter – Carl Kolchak, played by Darren McGavin – who investigated
mysterious crimes with unlikely causes, particularly those that law enforcement
authorities would not follow up. These often involved the supernatural or
science fiction, including fantastic creatures. The series was preceded by two
television movies, The Night Stalker (1972) and The Night Strangler (1973).
Although the series lasted only a single season, it garnered a world-wide fan
following and is considered a cult classic in horror television. Subsequent
novels and comic books later followed. And it later influenced the creation of
the X-Files, which is in the same vein as Kolchak: The Night Stalker.

In 2002, Moonstone began publishing
Prestige Format one-shots that pick up where the television show left off in
1975. Moonstone continues the creepy horror anthology that is: “Kolchak: The
Night Stalker” in various comic book related projects. Cue the “Kolchak: The
Night Stalker” intro theme music and be prepared to get totally spooked out…
with three complete Kolchak stories: “Devil in the Details”,
“Pain Most Human”, and “Pain without Tears”… all
presented in Full Color!  Awesome!!

Before the X-Files, there was Carl
Kolchak, TV’s first paranormal investigator (played with style and pinache by
Darren McGavin)! This volume collects the sold out stories: “Devil in the
Details”, “Pain Most Human”, and “Pain without Tears”.
Kolchak has three times the usual trouble in store for him! Stay with him as he
discovers that there is more than one way terror can strike from within. In
“ Devil in the Details”, Carl is
sent to investigate the disappearance of business owner Chester Fredersen. On
the surface it looks like Chester took off with the company’s loot while his
partner and brother is dying. Kolchak tumbles headlong into a hi-tech horror
story, as other members of the Fredersen family begin to vanish. Next in “Pain
Most Human”,  Seems an Air Force
base in Upstate New York’s engaged in a little cover-up, so our man Carl
Kolchak hightails it cross-country to get the story first-hand. And finally in “Pain
without Tears”, Kolchak finds himself on death’s door in defense of a
beautiful woman with strange powers. What is her secret, and why are so many
willing to KILL to control it?

Letterer: Vince Sneed

Editors: Mark Dawidziak,

Story/Spoilers:

On the surface, this one
looks like an open and shut case of embezzlement, as Chester Fredesen takes off
with his company’s loot while his brother (and business partner) Barry lies
dying in a hospital bed. Soon, other members of the family begin to vanish, and
Barry’s disease goes into an impossible state of remission, as Kolchak tumbles
headlong into a hi-tech horror story. Kolchak: The Night Stalker – Devil in the
Details finds the intrepid reporter for the Independent News Service
investigating the disappearance of Chester Fredersen, millionaire co-founder of
Byte-by-Byte, Inc., a computer firm in Santa Clara, California. You’re thinking
it’s a kidnapping, right? Nope. Fredersen disappeared in the literal sense,
leaving behind his clothes – in the shape of their former occupant. Things get
more complicated when other members of Fredersen’s family start disappearing…

Kolchak investigates the
disappearance of businessman Chester Fredersen, who has apparently embezzled
his company’s profits and then run off, leaving his brother and business
partner, Barry, in hospital dying of Lou Gherig’s Disease. Before he vanished,
Chester called his wife from work at the Byte-by-Byte corporation, screaming
that he was literally being eaten away. After Diana Fredersen also dissolves
into nothing while on a date with Kolchak, Barry’s condition goes into an
impossible state of remission. Kolchak beleives that the key lies in a bottle
of impossibly-small robots…

Story/Spoilers:

Everyone – including his
editor – thinks he’s crazy. Now, the man who has encountered vampires, zombies,
and werewolves wants to cover a “straight” story, but instead,
stumbles onto a military cover-up that hides a secret every bit as far-fetched
as anything he’s written before. This issue really cranks up the noir, as it dives deep into
Kolchak’s very soul. He begged Tony for a nice, normal lead, and that’s what he
got. Seems an Air Force base in upstate New York’s engaged in a little cover
up, so our man Carl Kolchak high tails it cross country in a fresh pressed suit
and a smile on his face. Using his singular reporting skills, and his annoying
interpersonal skills, he gets all the answers all right. Too bad these answers
may send him straight to an insane asylum. How cruel is Man? Wanna find out?
Carl did and would love to lay it out for you. Right here. Right now.

Tired of covering
stories that involve monsters and demons, Kolchak asks Tony for a simpler, more
normal assignment. His editor sends him to Camerton, N.Y., to find out just
what it was that fell out of the sky a few weeks ago; although initial reports
stated that the object was a crashed U.F.O., the story was subsequently
retracted by the nearby army base, which then issued an announcement that one
of their experimental jet planes had crashed. With the diverting assistance of
local waitress Kathy Phlinsen, Carl’s investigations lead him to check out the
nearby Lupoff Foundation, a factory complex that manufactures hi-tech computer
chips. That night, Kolchak decides to sneak into the army base, only to
discover that visitors from outer space are not the real monsters in this case…

Kolchak: The Night
Stalker – Pain without Tears  (2004)

Writer: C.J. Henderson

Letterer: Terri Boyle

Editor: C.J. Henderson

Story/Spoilers:

Kolchak finds himself on
death’s door in defense of a beautiful woman with strange powers. Rekindling a
part of him he thought extinguished, she haunts every thought his mind can
hold. What is her secret, and why are so many willing to Kill to control it?
And how will Carl survive the twin bullet shots to his body and soul?

Depressed at how his
life has become nothing but a succession of frightening encounters with
vampires, werewolves and energy beasts, and faced with the prospect of yet more
grisly death and horror, reporter Carl Kolchak heads for a bar and proceeds to
drink himself into oblivion. During his liquid breakfast, Carl encounters a
young Chinese girl, Yitt Feng, who encourages him to unburden his troubles on
her; after pouring out his life story to the attentive and sympathetic girl,
Carl is surprised to find himself feeling much better. But this happiness is
short-lived upon the arrival of two groups of men – a trio of sinister
corporate ‘Men in Black’ and two Asian thugs – who try to take the Chinese girl
away by force. While Kolchak’s attempts to protect Yitt only result in him
being beaten up, Yitt somehow manages to evade her pursuers, and she disappears
into the night. Realising that he has fallen for the girl, Kolchak turns to
Tony Vincenzo for help in finding Yitt; using the newspaper’s resources he
eventually tracks the girl to a nunnery. Here, Carl learns from the mother
superior that Yitt is an empath, capable of healing people by absorbing their
pain into herself. Reunited with Yitt, Carl encourages her to come away with
him; but as they leave the convent but they are once again faced with the trio
of Men in Black – and Carl is promptly shot dead…
