Just read the 1998 graphic novel WHITEOUT, written by Greg Rucka, illustrated by Steve Lieber. It's set in Antarctica, with a female U.S. Marshall trying to solve a murder among the U.S. bases on the ice. Sort of an ice-white noir.
There's a second graphic novel, WHITEOUT: MELT, and apparently a third in the works, WHITEOUT: NIGHT.
In September there's a movie version with Kate Beckinsale. Apparently it was originally slated for 2008. It's interesting to compare the 1999 graphic novel cover art by Frank Miller with the movie poster.
