When the ominous presence of BLOOD HUNT looms over the Marvel Universe, even the students of Strange Academy find themselves in peril!
In the pages of STRANGE ACADEMY: BLOOD HUNT (2024) #1 penned by Daniel José Older and illustrated by Luigi Zagaria, the vampire legions swarm New Orleans, the very grounds of the Strange Academy. Doyle Dormammu, Zoe Laveau, Shaylee Moonpeddle, Germán Aguilar, and Toth are swiftly thrust into a race against time as they seek the elusive Darkhold. This ancient tome holds a spell capable of annihilating all vampires. But a formidable obstacle arises: the Darkhold has recently taken the form of a human child due to the aftermath of Agatha Harkness’ CONTEST OF CHAOS (2023)!
Offering a sneak peek into STRANGE ACADEMY: BLOOD HUNT (2024) #1, we witness Doyle, Zoe, Shayle, Germán, and Toth savoring a leisurely day in the city alongside newcomer Pia and her peculiar rabbit-like familiar. Yet, their idyllic stroll through historic cemeteries abruptly transforms into a nightmarish encounter as the day abruptly turns to night, enveloping them in the clutches of a vampire onslaught. Desperately seeking refuge, they flee back to the sanctuary of their campus. Thankfully, the intervention of Doctor VooDoo ensures their safe passage, while simultaneously quelling the bloodthirsty invaders.
Within the pages, we glimpse Doctor Strange projecting his astral form onto the campus, engaging in a clandestine dialogue with Jericho as the curious students clandestinely eavesdrop. Meanwhile, in another compelling scene, the enigmatic Darkhold child showcases his formidable mystical prowess, sparking a heated exchange with Agatha during a tense train journey.
