Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Marvel Comics has released the first of its bloody homage variant covers for Blood Hunt featuring Thor’s severed head in a spine-tingling reference to EC Comics. The variants are set to go along with the "Red Band" editions of Marvel’s vampire crossover event this summer, promising more monstrous gore and violence than the standard issues.
The cover by Leinil Francis Yu is the first of more bloody homage variants to be revealed by Marvel before the event kicks off. Yu references a classic and controversial EC Comics cover that has been credited as part of the backlash leading to the Comics Code Authority. Though the publisher didn’t release any more horror comics after 1956, its terrifying tales have stood the test of time and Oni Press is reviving EC Comics this summer. The Comics Code Authority had some responsibility for the fall of EC Comics as its restrictive regulations on comic books prohibited anything including any horror, excessive bloodshed, or gory and gruesome crimes.
