A Powerful Blend of History and Sci-Fi

The story follows Avery Aldridge, a Black veteran of World War II who is struggling to provide for his family in Alabama. Avery is a man with a secret: he was the subject of strange experiments during the war that left him with incredible, and often uncontrollable, abilities.

• Tense Historical Setting: Latoya Morgan expertly utilizes the setting to explore the systemic racism and personal struggles of the 1950s South, grounding the supernatural elements in a deeply human reality.

• Atmospheric Visuals: Walt Barna’s art perfectly captures the era's mood, blending grounded, realistic character designs with surreal and explosive manifestations of Avery's powers.

• Deeply Personal Narrative: At its core, Dark Blood is a story about a father’s love and the lengths a man will go to protect his family from a world—and a past—that wants to destroy him.
