NOTE: This special edition is intended for mature audiences only.

For years, Blade has been the deadliest vampire hunter in the Marvel Universe! With an arsenal of wooden stakes, silver bullets and razor bats at his command, few have known the taste of vengeance and blood like him! But after the harrowing events of BLOOD HUNT, what’s left of the Daywalker? Did any of the vampire within Blade survive? Did any of the man? He may want more than ever to be left alone — but the world, and danger, won’t let him go, and he soon finds himself embroiled in conflict with his bloodlust reignited! Can Blade escape the crosshairs of the latest in the famous lineage of Van Helsing?! Perhaps with help from his new partner!
