Marvel unveiled a new variant cover for the upcoming Wolverine: Blood Hunt tie-in series, illustrated by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman. The tie-in miniseries, written by Tom Waltz with interior art by Juan José Ryp, marks the first installment written by Waltz, who previously worked with Eastman on TMNT: The Last Ronin. The creative team will depict Wolverine working with Louise of the Nightguard, a monster hunter from the Benjamin Percy run, to wage war on the vampire nation.
In the press release, Waltz discussed making his Marvel debut, stating:
“I’ve spent much of my career writing about iconic mutants, so having my Marvel debut be a chance to put ‘the best there is’ through a vampiric bloodstorm in WOLVERINE: BLOOD HUNT is an absolute thrill of a lifetime. It’s made even better by getting to do it alongside the amazingly talented Juan José Ryp, top-notch colorist GURU-eFX, and stellar editors Mark Basso and Drew Baumgartner! Blood, bullets, claws, and fangs—nothing gets held back in our four-issue gauntlet of gore!”
