Marvel Comics has been on a tear releasing Blood Hunt tie-in news–don’t miss Black Panther and Union Jack news–and today we’ve got news of a new anthology series coming out called Blood Hunters. The debut issue will feature a story with Hawkeye, Man-Wolf, and Dagger. The first issue will feature creators Mark Russell & Bob Quinn, Christos Gage & Javier Garron, Erica Schultz & Bernard Chang on stories. The first issue comes out on May 8th.
“It’s really exciting to write Dagger and see her assemble a team of fantastic fang hunters!” Schultz shared. “You’re going to love the dynamic between these characters, and see where the drama is!”
Here’s what we know about these stories:
- HAWKEYE is on the run – but does he have enough trick arrows in his quiver to avoid both the long arm of the law AND vampires out for his blood?! See Clint band together with a brave group of civilians in a pulse-pounding story by writer Mark Russell and artist Bob Quinn.
- MAN-WOLF and J. JONAH JAMESON do a little father-son bonding – while also fighting for their lives against a horde of bloodsuckers! It’s a new chapter of one of the oddest family dynamics in the Marvel Universe by writer Christos Gage and artist Javier Garrón.
- With Cloak missing in action, DAGGER strikes out in search of new and surprising allies. Witness the genesis of Marvel’s wildest team yet: the BLOOD HUNTERS in the start of a multi-part story by Erica Schultz and Bernard Chang that will run across all four issues! Who will Dagger recruit? You’ll have to wait and see!
“It’s an honor to be contributing to BLOOD HUNTERS and the BLOOD HUNT event, and to collaborate with Erica Schultz, who’s crafted a bloody exciting story; and the masterful magician, Marcelo Maiolo, whose color work is amongst the bloody best in the medium,” Chang added. “I hope the work will live up to fan expectations, as well as those of previous creators who have tackled the very same characters from when I was reading and collecting comics in my teens, like the legendary Rick Leonardi and Mike Vosburg.”
