What else does Blood Hunt have in store?
The main story of Blood Hunt will play out in a five-issue limited series by Jed MacKay and Pepe Larraz — which launches Wednesday, May 1. That said, the vampiric saga will also unfold in a number of tie-in comics. In addition to the 16 tie-in issues that will release across seven existing series, Marvel has announced eight Blood Hunt tie-in limited series.
The first three limited series — Blood Hunters, Dracula: Blood Hunt, and Strange Academy: Blood Hunt — will launch on May 8. Union Jack the Ripper: Blood Hunt and Amazing Spider-Man: Blood Hunt launch on May 15, followed by Black Panther: Blood Hunt and Midnight Sons: Blood Hunt on May 29. Finally, Wolverine: Blood Hunt gets underway on June 5.
Furthermore, Marvel will announce a total of six tie-in one-shots as part of the Blood Hunt event. Two of these one-shots will be stand-alone, while the other four will be linked to one another. (On top of all that, Blood Hunt is getting a prelude special on Saturday, May 4 as part of Free Comic Book Day.) Check out the current event checklist below:
