Wolverine Goes Berserk On Bloodsuckers In Kevin Eastman’s ‘Wolverine: Blood Hunt’ Cover
by Tony Thornley
The Marvel Universe is getting ready for a vampire invasion in Blood Hunt this summer. It wouldn’t be an event without the best there is, and Wolverine still has a score to settle with the vampires.
Marking the Marvel debut of Tom Waltz with are by Juan Jose Ryp, Wolverine: Blood Hunt will find Logan’s long-simmering feud with the vampire nation coming to a head, resolving a plot that’s been in the background of the current volume of Wolverine, practically since the beginning. Waltz has made a huge impact on the industry, particularly with the mega-hit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, and for this story, he’s bringing along his Last Ronin collaborator and comics legend Kevin Eastman for a special cover.
“I’ve spent much of my career writing about iconic mutants, so having my Marvel debut be a chance to put ‘the best there is’ through a vampiric bloodstorm in Wolverine: Blood Hunt is an absolute thrill of a lifetime,” Waltz shared. “It’s made even better by getting to do it alongside the amazingly talented Juan José Ryp, top-notch colorist GURU-eFX, and stellar editors Mark Basso and Drew Baumgartner! Blood, bullets, claws, and fangs—nothing gets held back in our four-issue gauntlet of gore!”
“I couldn’t be more proud and thrilled to join my ‘Last Ronin Bro’ Tom Waltz on his first Wolverine story!” Eastman shared. “I was lucky enough to be invited to add a cover to the issue, and do my small part for the incredible team that brought this issue to life. The story rocks, the art rocks – can’t wait for you all to sink your teeth into this one!”
