Marvel’s Next Major Crossover Event Is Blood Hunt

Marvel Comics’ next major crossover event is the vampire-themed series Blood Hunt, due for release in Spring 2024.

Announced at NYCC this weekend as part of the Next Big Thing Panel, the main Blood Hunt limited series will be written by Jed MacKay (Avengers) with artwork from Pepe Larraz and Marte Gracia (X-Men).

Coming to the proper Marvel U, Blood Hunt will unleash savage vampires onto the streets and pit them against a mix of experienced superheroes and those who aren’t quite used to fighting the undead. Then there’s Blade of course too, who’ll no doubt play a huge part in what’s to come.

 

Vampires have always walked amongst the shadows of the Marvel Universe, but in Spring 2024, the long night arrives and these bloodsucking terrors will endure the spotlight like never before. The main event series will be brought to life by an A-team of Marvel talent: current Avengers scribe Jed MacKay and acclaimed X-Men artists Pepe Larraz and Marte Gracia. In classic Marvel fashion, BLOOD HUNT will also spill out into a host of tie-in issues in Marvel’s hottest current series and see the launch of all-new limited series, one-shots, and redefining status quos.

“We have vampires in our books all the time, there’s some bad blood there,” MacKay said. “What happens if the shoe was on the other foot? We’ve got the Avengers, Moon Knight’s Midnight Mission, Doctor Strange, Miles Morales, and of course, Blade, and there’s going to be more vampires you can shake a stick at.”
