Blade hit the comics scene in the 1970s - a time when horror movies were all the rage and Black cinema was introducing bold new action heroes who defied authority. Blade immediately changed the stakes of Marv Wolfman and Gene Colan's TOMB OF DRACULA, bringing a sense of unstoppable determination as he pursued Deacon Frost, the vampire who killed his mother. And if a few other vampires died along the way, all the better! This Omnibus collects, for the first time, Blade's complete early adventures: from his influential role in TOMB OF DRACULA to his 1970s solo stories and his climactic battle against Dracula alongside Doctor Strange!

Collecting TOMB OF DRACULA (1972) #10, #12-14, #24, #30, #41-43, #45, #51, #53 and #58; MARVEL PREVIEW #3; FEAR #24; and DOCTOR STRANGE (1974) #61-62 and #67 - plus material from TOMB OF DRACULA (1972) #17-19, #21, #44, #46-50 and #52; VAMPIRE TALES #8-9; MARVEL PREVIEW #8; and MARVEL COMICS PRESENTS (1988) #64.

THIS IS A PRE-ORDER AND WILL BE ON SALE FROM 14th NOVEMBER 2023

Please note: we are able to offer these highly collectable and extremely readable Omnibus editions at competitive prices because we don't keep stock on hand, we order copies from the distributor as they are ordered from us. This means that it may take up to two weeks for the book to arrive with us - and then a few days for us to send it on to you. This makes it a great option if you're not in a rush and want a competitively-priced new copy, or are looking to plug holes in your collection - but if you want a copy to read this weekend, we would suggest ordering from another independent store (like Reed Comics) that keep copies in stock and can get them to you faster.

Due to the weight and size of these Omnibus editions we're only able to offer them to UK customers.

All Omnibus copies are new and shrink-wrapped.
