Summary Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Blood Hunt #4!Vampires have taken center stage in Marvel Comics with the ongoing Blood Hunt event, and with their newfound prevalence comes a massive in-world lore change. Not much has been known about vampires in Marvel Comics aside from what everyone simply assumed, based on the real world urban legend, as well as the plethora of vampire fiction that’s out there.
Close The spirit of Varnae possessed Blade prior to this storyline, as Blade’s ability to be out in the sunlight while also carrying the vampiric curse made him an ideal host. Once re-introductions were out of the way, Varnae tells Black Panther exactly what his plans are: to become the Unliving Darkforce. As such, Varnae will have ascended into godhood, thereby achieving the vampires’ true destiny.
Vampires are Nothing More than the ‘Pupil Form’ of the Unliving Darkforce in Marvel Comics As revealed in this issue of Blood Hunt, Varnae first became a vampire while scribing the Darkhold within the Temple of the First Blasphemy when it was still located in Atlantis many generations ago. He harnessed the dark, otherworldly power to become something unnatural, a creature of the night that drank human blood - the first vampire.
