Moonstone Books put out a very believable Kolchak comic for February, it comes as close to looking like the original television series as a comic book can. Its a two parter this month, and I'm looking forward to the next one, but sheese, I sure hated to see on television programs as a kid. BOOBUSTER,
Welcome to the domain!
Thanks for the intel.

After watching the trailers for the new show I have to say it looks like they have gone with the 'bright young things' casting I was dreading. ABC will be showing this in the Fall on a Thursday evening, and it looks at first sight (to me anyway) to be like a number of other shows. Kolchak has gained a sort of partner in the shape of Perri Reed played by Gabrielle Union.
We know Kolchak was an inspiration for the X files but it looks like they have just tried to imitate the X Files formula.
Moulder is searching for answers to why/how his sister mysteriously vanished....Kolchak is searching for answers to his wife's murder.
Moulder is given a partner who is sceptical of all the mysterious theories Moulder has for the cases he works on..........Kolchak has a female sceptical partner.
As the UK may not get this for a while I am still reserving final judgement but if recent remakes/updates to old shows are anything to judge by then this is going to be one big let down.

I watched the first ep of the new series a few days ago (newsgroups are your friend).. yup it has a "bright young things" cast. It seemed a bit formulaic too - so many ameican shows seem to blur into one another these days. I still thought it was ok, but i preferred the original guy.
