Blood Hunt interconnected cover shows battle between Avengers and Bloodcoven

Blood Hunt’s vampiric legions are taking aim at the Marvel Universe, but the Avengers will have something to say about that.

Bloody brawl

If you’re a Marvel Comics fan, then you pebbly know all about Blood Hunt by now. The crossover event taking place this spring/summer will put the Marvel U into an “eternal night” that will give rise to rampaging legions of deadly vampires. Those won’t all be your run of the mill suckheads either, as they’ll be led by the villainous Bloodcoven, a collection of super-powered vamps.

So what’s a world to do? Well, call the Avengers for one thing, and to see a bit of what’s on the horizon in the arena of ‘superheroes vs super-vampires’, we’ve got a little teaser in the form of an interconnected cover.

“I knew going in that vampires weren’t bad enough. If the children of the night were going up against the Avengers, let alone the other heroes of the world, bigger guns were required,” MacKay explained. “Hence the Bloodcoven—supervampires, fed on the blood of superhumans that follow different vampiric philosophies, subsisting not only on blood but pain, or magic, or thoughts, or even ghosts! I threw together a list of names and some thoughts about powers, but it was Pepe who really brought these characters to (un)life, creating an extremely gnarly set of predators!”

Marvel Comics press release

All five core issues of Blood Hunt will have a piece of the interconnected art, and when you have ’em all, you’ll of course be able to assemble the full battle. That image above is actually just the first three parts of what will be the final image too, so stay tuned because Marvel will probably be sharing more in the weeks to come.
