And Detective Harper Holloway has been assigned to the case. To solve it, she'll have to unearth a much deeper truth: the future of humanity has been edited.
BLOODSHOT RISING SPIRIT TP
(W) Lonnie Nadler (A) Ken Lashley (CA) Felipe Massafera
Before a weapon is deployed in battle, it must be designed, refined, field-tested. Bloodshot was no exception. In the early days of the private military contractor Project Rising Spirit, the nanite-infused super-soldier who would one day become their most violent and valuable asset was a resource to be mined - and it was up an enterprising team of scientists to ensure he did what he was told. But memory is a tricky thing...and the man Bloodshot used to be won't let go of his past so easily... Writers Kevin Grevioux (New Warriors), ELIOT RAHAL (The Paybacks), and Lonnie Nadler and Zac Thompson (Cable) team up with distinguished artists Ken Lashley (Black Panther), Rags Morales (Action Comics), and more to open a door once closed and reveal answers to questions that Bloodshot himself would never think to ask! Collecting BLOODSHOT RISING SPIRIT #1-8.

THE VAIN TP #1
(W) ELIOT RAHAL (A) Emily Pearson
Chicago, 1941. A blood bank is held up in a robbery, but no cash is taken-only blood. It's the latest in a string of similar robberies and as the United States prepares to enter World War II, FBI Agent Felix Franklin is certain it's part of a wider plot to weaken the United States by depriving it of its blood supply. But the truth is much more sinister. The four robbers are vampires: immortal, physically powerful, and after decades of honing their skills, practically untraceable. But time goes on and the vampires-who call themselves The Vain-stay the same in a world that is rapidly changing around them. As security measures evolve, stealing blood is harder every day. And with every decade that passes, Agent Franklin gets closer to finding them. Capturing them. Ending them.

Just as their secret caches of healthy human sustenance runs dry, the news breaks--the government has developed synthetic blood that will never deteriorate. It's time for one last big score!
