I haven't gotten to actually read the central Shadowland mini-series, but all these tie-in specials and minis have actually been quite good.

Wellinton Alves also proves to be a pleasant surprise in this issue. I've enjoyed his work on Nova, but this proves he's capable of working in a grittier, more cinematic landscape.

Perhaps it was simply just a matter of taste but this attempt was far more convincing than Bullseye was in proving that there may be substantial storytelling to be enjoyed outside of the Shadowland proper. Where Bullseye felt like it was almost forced upon you, Blood was a pure joy to let yourself get absorbed in. It also lent a hint of optimism as to what quality may be found in upcoming tie-in issues. For me, this issue made Shadowland that much more interesting in general by giving you a smaller piece to the larger puzzle. Read Full Review
