Official story

Character Dossier

Eric Brooks was born a Daywalker — half-human, half-vampire — because his mother was bitten by a vampire while Eric was still in her womb. His supernatural powers and mastery of weapons made him the perfect vampire hunter — Blade.

When Dracula took over New York City, Blade was the first hero to confront him. Having mastered the power of the Chronovium, Dracula defeated Blade and imprisoned him in a dungeon. After Blade was freed, he was sent to Wakanda to recover… until Shuri recruited him as her most powerful ally against Knull!
