C.1 - Bloodshot

A murderer’s row of comic talents – Peter Milligan (Hellblazer), Duane Swierczynski (Birds of Prey), B. Clay Moore (JSA: The Liberty Files), Howard Chaykin (American Flagg), Lewis LaRosa (Punisher MAX), Manuel Garcia (Black Widow), and many more – come together for a collection of stories from throughout the bullet-riddled history of Valiant’s most brutal and relentless hero! Meet the man behind Bloodshot – or is he? – when one soldier’s untapped killer instinct takes over in “The Glitch”! Then, Russian superpies don’t die easy as “Sleepers” takes Bloodshot deep into the biting cold of a former Soviet state and face to face with an enemy eerily similar to himself. Plus: the origin of Bloodshot retold, Howard Chaykin’s “Protocol”, and much more! Collecting BLOODSHOT #24, the oversized BLOODSHOT #25 anniversary extravaganza, and an exclusive Director’s Cut of BLOODSHOT #1 – featuring a never-before-seen, behind-the- scenes look inside the script, art, and character designs of the blockbuster first issue that set Bloodshot in motion!

Harbinger Wars is going out with a bang! A battle for the lives of Project Rising Spirit’s escaped psiot children is being waged between Toyo Harada, Peter Stancheck’s Renegades and the H.A.R.D. Corps – and Bloodshot stands in the center of it all. But even if Bloodshot manages to win the day, will the tortured, traumatized, and über- powerful kids he’s fought for choose to remain under the protection of the Harbinger hunter that once haunted their nightmares? Something’s in the air – and a new era is unfolding for the weapon – no, the soldier – no, the man known as Bloodshot.

Before the Harbinger Foundation, before Project Rising Spirit, Toyo Harada spent decades circling the globe, recruiting empowered individuals to his cause through coercion, intimidation and influence. But how is one deal brokered in secret between Harada and Rising Sprit Securities forty years ago now wreaking havoc in the modern day? And when the past comes roaring back, how will Peter Stanchek and the rest of Harada’s most wanted react to the revelation of Rising Spirit’s secret mission and the Harbinger hunter known as Bloodshot?
