I guess this week is Blade week, we get a double dose of the Vampire Hunter. It amazing how he can be such a star on the big screen and yet he struggles as a comic. Over the years he has had several on-going series but no ongoing series. I wonder if its simply the concept of a vampire hunter thats limiting. Is it something thats only good in small doses? Does it get stale after 12 or so issues? Or is it simply another victim of the minority character curse in comics.
Maybe, we are waiting on some writer to write the defeinitive Blade story something along the lines of Frank Millers run on Daredevil. It’s my understanding that Daredevil was on the chopping block before Miller saved it. Maybe that’s what Blade needs that one great story to get things going. While you are waiting on that to happen you probably need to check out Ultimate Comics Avengers 3 #1 (of 6) and X-Men #2.
