The Best 5 Modern Blade Comics!

June 3, 2021 by Marc Griffin Leave a Comment

Blade is one of the most disgustingly slept-on vigilantes in all comics. The dhampiric Marvel character made his debut in the 70s Tomb of Dracula, and has bounced around quite a bit since then. His books don’t fly off the shelves like those of the X-Men, he isn’t everyone’s favorite hero like Spider-Man, and his supernatural tales are often outdone by the likes of Dr. Strange and Ghost Rider. Blade’s books have always been long ignored and soon forgotten as series after series is canceled and, eventually, reborn. Under the hit-or-miss pen of Jason Aaron on Avengers and the Heroes Reborn event, his latest appearance has left much to be desired.

With Mahershala Ali cast as the titular hero in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe reboot/interpretation of everyone’s favorite daywalker, it’s only a matter of time before we get the inevitable new Blade comic series. Jason Aaron and Javier Garron’s recent run on Avengers has been a decent showing of his prowess, and the Heroes Reborn series has been interesting, to say the least.

Blade (Vampire Hunter) Reading Order

August 1, 2018 by Dave Leave a Comment

For my money, Blade has one of the most fascinating modern comics profiles of any Marvel hero.  The vampire hunter and Midnight Son didn’t truly ascend to cult favorite status until the Wesley Snipes led Blade hit theaters in 1998.  [Read more…] about Blade (Vampire Hunter) Reading Order
