kind of strange on how morbius struggles with handcuffs, and how the tone is too goofy as well as bringing back the Beyond storyline.

Amazing Spider-Man: Blood Hunt #1

By: Justina Ireland, Marcelo Ferreira
Released: May 15, 2024

Spinning directly out of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #49, Spidey's role in BLOOD HUNT becomes clear and it involves, of course, MORBIUS! That's right, the Web-Slinger's main vampiric villain Michael Morbius is involved in the big vampire play and Peter has to figure out if he needs to take out his fanged foe or SAVE HIM?!

I've liked 95% of what I've read from MacKay, and that includes his Avengers and Blood Hunt, although his best work is definitely still his work on Moon Knight, imo.
