After Marvel’s announcement of the first Blood Hunt tie-in series yesterday, Black Panther: Blood Hunt, they’ve quickly followed things up with a second piece of news.
The next 3-issue mini-series to be joining the vampiric ranks of Jed Mackay and Pepe Larraz’s event is Union Jack The Ripper: Blood Hunt.
Find the official synopsis for the series here, courtesy of Marvel.com:
‘A Union Jack story like you’ve never seen before as the iconic British hero armors up, grabs his trusty Webley pistol, liberates a medieval longsword, straps on some grenades, and heads out to slaughter the blood-sucking masses in a way that would make the Punisher envious! Union Jack’s solo mission will place him at war with a specific brood of vampires targeting his homeland, all led by a mysterious villain known as the Hunger!’
