This looks really good
I think this new Blade book is easily going to be the best solo. Already has a lot of what people have been asking for in a Blade book. First issue's out today.
I was very pleased to see Blade interacting with werewolves, and now he’s unleashed some kind of ancient evil goddess/demon. Been wanting to see Blade up against other kinds of supernatural evil and this delivered on that! Only quibble I have is that the book assumes I know more about Marvel supernatural than I do, what do they mean when they say the “first and second world”? What is that referring to?
For when my rants on the forums just aren’t enough: https://thevindicativevordan.tumblr.com/
Just finished the first issue. Love the artstyle and the costume Blade wearing. He looks like a cool anime character which I love. I also like that Blade is fighting more than just vampires, because I hope I do not offend any Blade fans but I personally feel vampires are quite "limited" in the Marvel Universe in terms of threat.
Immediately getting this! Marvel has been so much soft trash these days I haven't taken anything seriously. This has the mood and tenor of what Blade should be.

MILES MORALES: SPIDER-MAN #11
CODY ZIGLAR (W) • PARTHA PRATIM (A) • COVER BY FEDERICO VICENTINI
A BLADE BITES IN BROOKLYN!
A sinister force has infiltrated SPIDER-MAN’s new neighborhood. Thousands are at risk, and HIGHTAIL and the CAPE KILLERS already have Miles on the ropes. His only hope may lie in vampire hunter BLADE, who has business in Brooklyn. But Blade and Spidey may not exactly see eye to eye on the current predicament. One that Blade really wants to sink his teeth into
I liked the first issue a lot. Action focused, great artwork, and it introduced seemingly the big bad and the main supporting character by the end. I'm looking forward to seeing where Hill takes Blade.
