Description

I was very lucky to score this page from a comic store in Florida many years ago.

It was not very expensive, but they let me do time payments to get it...and I am forever grateful.

It's one of the better action pages from the issue.

In honor of Halloween, I decided to post this to share.

And a blood chilling scream echoes forth as Blade's knife finds the bat's soft underbelly. Yep, that's Halloween appropriate. Great Colan Dracula page! And a first appearance of Blade, too. So cool. Congrats!

Hi Jordan! Per our conversation, please keep me in mind if the timing is right to move this one. I have a Blade shaped hole in my heart.
