ABOUT

Count Dracula is reborn as a katana-wielding young vampiress in a new, never-seen-before action manga set in a gritty, alternate-history Europe. Fans of cinematic, gory, supernatural alternate histories, like Vampire Hunter D, Hellsing, and Dance in the Vampire Bund, will want to sink their fangs into BLOOD BLADE.

Made in Japan, first published in English!
"COUNT VLAD HAS AWAKENED."

After sacrificing himself to protect Vlad and his friends, the young Camille clone has been transformed into a terrifying colossus. However, in a sudden flash of humanity, it turns its destructive power upon Londobell Castle rather than the city. Meanwhile, Vlad faces a difficult choice: press on to Monster Island or try to breach the castle and rescue an old enemy. The outcome will determine the fate of his friends, monsters, and mankind itself... FINAL VOLUME!

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
