Oni Press continues its successful reboot of the iconic EC Comics brand this summer with the launch of Blood Type, a vampire-themed series stemming from the anthology Epitaphs From the Abyss.
IGN exclusively reveals the cover art for Blood Type #1:
Blood Type, the first in a planned series of EC Comics spin-offs, debuts Summer 2025. Written by Corinna Bechko ( Cruel Universe, Green Lantern: Earth One) and illustrated by Andrea Sorrentino (Gideon Falls, Old Man Logan), with colors by Dave Stewart (Hellboy), the first issue boasts covers by Sorrentino, Miguel Mercado (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Albert Monteys (Universe!), and Naomi Franq (Black Hammer: Barbalien).
Oni Press provides this synopsis:
WHEN YOU'RE A VAMPIRE, EVERYBODY SUCKS . . . SOONER OR LATER! Meet Ada, an immortal vampire whose misdeeds have landed her on the doorstep of an idyllic Caribbean resort. . . . An island paradise teeming with wealthy tourists and superstitious locals—an ample food supply for the thirsty vamp looking to get away from it all! But as Ada stalks the boundaries of her new hunting ground, she'll soon become embroiled in a deadly game of cat and mouse by moonlight . . . as an older, wiser, and entirely different kind of predator reveals its own carnal hunger for greed and power. Who will survive when a brand-new kind of BLOOD TYPE declares war on a cunning bloodsucker with nothing left to lose . . . and what will be left of them?!
"Horror has always been where I feel most at home, something Andrea and I share," Bechko states in Oni's press release. "With Blood Type, we've created a wicked tale expanding on a character I fell in love with the moment she appeared on the page. Does she love me back? Not a chance, and that's her charm. She's a vampire, but she doesn't sparkle or yearn for romance. She is, however, ready to take over a tropical paradise."
Sorrentino adds, "I think horror is simply my thing. I've worked on superheroes and sci-fi, but horror is where I feel at home…Connecting with the reader's deepest fears through imagery is a satisfying challenge. Collaborating with EC Comics, a giant in comic horror, first on two short stories and now this limited series, is an honor. I can't wait to work with Corinna Bechko and my long-time collaborator Dave Stewart on this amazing project."
Blood Type #1 releases June 18, 2025. Oni will reprint the original Blood Type short story in the Free Comic Book Day 2025 special, EC Presents: Blood Type #0.
