Article Summary
- Five Blood Hunt tie-ins including Union Jack The Ripper #2 hit shelves.
- Blade’s possession by ancient vampire Varnae takes center stage in Blood Hunt #4.
- New Yorker heroes and Siberian vampires clash in Moon Knight and Magik issues.
- Marvel comics teases cosmic twists and ally quests in the expanding Blood Hunt saga.
Still no sign of Moon Knight #0, a special surprise Blood Hunt tie-in which I am sure is out there somewhere. But the Blood Hunt series and spinoffs continue unabated this week with five titles in total. Union Jack The Ripper #2, Vengeance Of Moon Knight #6, Magik #1, Midnight Sons #2 and Blood Hunt #4. As everyone dives into the past…
The main series reveals that Blade is possessed by the ancient vampire Varnae courtesy of continuity from thirty-four years ago.
Because, yes, stuff has been going down for some time. Further than this.
Quite a considerable amount of time. Also, further than this.
But the Siberian vampires up against Magik know Varnae of old.
Even while some vampires prefer more modern methods of collecting souls.
While Blade is still whizzing in and out of various Blood Hunt books with his vampiric speed…
And Blade/Varnae has a plan that expands well beyond the limits that Blood Hunt has shown so far.
Though the heroes plot in lands far afield like Asgard…
As well as goodly fighters in the forests of Siberia…
….on the streets of Manchester…
…and on the streets of New York to honour Moon Knight…
As some owe that man much, in death as in life.
So while Magik gets teased by Siberian vampires for not having a sun.
There may be another planetary body that may come into play.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker, Wherever you’re goin’, I’m goin’ your way…
Two drifters, off to see the world, there’s such a lot of world to see…
We’re after the same rainbow’s end, waitin’ ’round the bend
My huckleberry friend, Moon river and me… time to bathe in the reflected glory.
