The V in "V-Day" stands for "Vampire" this year, with the vampire hunter celebrating the day of love by taking on a frightening new foe: his own father.  

Blade Faces His Father For The First Time in Blade #6

After squaring off with Wolverine last issue, Blade must face his father for the first time in Blade #6.

Blade #5, a Civil War Casualties of War tie-in, has sold out at Diamond as Marc Guggenheim and Howard Chaykin blast forward with one amazing Blade adventure after another.

Not only have the fans responded to Blade in his own ongoing series, but the critics agree: Blade has bite!

Leroy Douresseaux of ComicBookBin.com says, "Writer Marc Guggenheim continues to deliver a solid action comic with strong character writing...Unlike so many comic book writers today, Guggenheim can deliver, in each single issue, a single dose of Blade action that begins and ends in the span of 22 pages."

Andy Oliver of BrokenFrontier.com, "Howard Chaykin's art is a real highlight here. This is a book that rewards re-reading because of the little details you may have missed in Chaykin's panels the first time."

Retailers are advised to increase their orders on upcoming issues of Blade by the fan-favorite creative team of Marc Guggenheim (Wolverine) and Howard Chaykin (New Avengers).

Don't miss the next shocking issue as the Vampire Hunter comes face-to-face with his father for the first time in Blade #6!
