Each issue of BLOOD HUNT will sport a FANGS VARIANT COVER by artist David Baldeón.
Jed MacKay and Pepe Larraz’s BLOOD HUNT begins on May 1.
This May, eternal darkness washes over the Marvel Universe in Jed MacKay and Pepe Larraz’s BLOOD HUNT. The upcoming event kicks off when various vampire factions, united for the first time in millennia, engineer a global attack using Darkforce energy to block out the sun. Having lurked in the shadows of the Marvel Universe since its very beginning, vampires are now unleashed on humanity as heroes and villains alike fall prey to their overwhelming bloodlust. Who will bite it?
Today, fans can get their first look at special FANGS VARIANT COVERS that will adorn each issue of the main BLOOD HUNT event limited series. Drawn by David Baldeón, these eye-catching covers spotlight the ferocity of some of the saga’s major players including Dracula, Tigra, and pop culture’s premier vampire hunter, Blade.
“I think that there’s something interesting in the idea that Blade can never win,” MacKay told Marvel.com. “He’s out there every night, going after the vampires, and even when he gets a big win, it never seems to last long. But that doesn’t stop him, and he doesn’t age, so he’ll just keep doing what he does until it kills him. There’s a drive to Blade that sets him apart.”
BLOOD HUNT is a grand-scale epic that’s been seeded in Marvel comics for decades. Recent buildup includes MacKay’s current hit run of MOON KNIGHT, recent issues of MILES MORALES: SPIDER-MAN, last year’s BLOODLINE: THE DAUGHTER OF BLADE limited series, and more! In the grand tradition of beloved events like CIVIL WAR and SECRET INVASION, BLOOD HUNT will be rewarding to longtime Marvel readers while also serving as a thrilling entry point into Marvel Comics for newer fans!
