I guess this explains why I haven't seen you or any other comic book KZbinrs talk about new Blade comics. It's a shame he should get new comics and good stories. Perhaps they shouldn't just limit him to just hunting vampires and have him deal with supernatural threats like Dr. Strange and Ghost Rider.

There's an answer for Blade's Daywalker "chicken of the egg" question. There was a panel interview/discussion with the 90's Spider-Man Animated series writers. When Blade came up, the head writer revealed that it was actually them that ended up making Blade half Vampire first before both the movie and the comic. The movie seems to have followed their interpretation in particular because Whistler, Blade's mentor in the movie, comes from the cartoon and not the comics. I remember watching the conversation about a year ago, so it should still be on KZbin somewhere. I'll link it in an edit if I come across it again.

Wesley Snipes was perfect for this role, but I think Michael Jai White would've been a better choice over Mahershala Ali. Michael Jai White is real life martial arts practitioner. He is Spawn, Bronze Tiger, Universal Soldier, Blood and Bone, Undisputed 2, Never Back Down, Falcom Rising, Dark Knight. He definitely is the better choice. Also, Blade stories can be much better if the writers think outside the box. Blade doesn't only have to fight vampires. His power set and skillz make him great as street level hero or he can be elevated to a magical status by implementing him into Dr. Strange story arcs where Blade gets involved with voodoo and witchcraft. He can become friends with Brother Voodo and learn how to use it and add to his powerset. Blade can have cool adventures with Spider/Wolverine team ups, Xmen team ups, Dr. Strange or Avengers team ups. Or even associate him with Wakanda and create a story line where he ends up dating Storm or marrying Shuri. I have so many ideas. Blade can be used in any storyline, but the writers need to back away from vampires for a while.

Blades first appearance was in 1973?! NICE, I was born in 1973, October. I remember seeing back and random packaged issues when i was little and youd get the scary books batched together, same for the rest. But whenever I saw Tomb of Dracula ads or comics, Blade was always nearby. Every time I saw him thereafter his Look was stylistically up to the times of his appearance. Then the look was solidified by the Wesley Snipes films. That look carried over to the subsequent shortly lived Blade tv series but also in the comics as well.

Dont forget that the early 90s saw a HUGE resurgence surrounding vampires in general. The book Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice was written way earlier, but the hype was at its height at that time and the movie adaptation came out in 94. In the geek world Vampire the Masquerade (RPG) was released in 91 and was heavily influenced on the Anne Rice book. The Bram Stokers Dracula movie also released in 92. So yeah, lots of vampire stuff back then. Its not a coincidence that they decided to make Blade movies at that time and that the hype for blade died out with the hype for vampires in general. I hope they flesh him out and make a good movie!

Blade Vol 4 technically barely exists and everyone references the volumes incorrectly. In 2015 Marvel tried to release a comic BLADE THE HUNTER (Blade Vol 4) with Blade being a Female. The 1st book sold so poorly it got cancelled. There are 6 total covers, only 1 of them is shown on CLZ. So, the newest entry (2023) that everyone on eBay refers to as Volume 4 is actually/technically Volume 5. I'm sure Marvel would like to forget it was even a thought, though I'm sure it's what sparked the idea of Bloodline: The Daughter Of Blade. I have a huge Blade collection and have been down the recent wormhole for the past 6-7 years now. There is what consists of Blades Main Story: Of course, Tomb of Dracula. Blade The Vampire Hunter Vol1 (94-95) "Strange Tales" is part of this Run. Blade The Vampire Hunter Vol2 (99-00) Blade Vol 1 (98-99), Blade Vol 2 (02) MAX, Blade Vol 3 (06-07) "It takes one to Kill one", Blade Vol 4 (OCT'15) The Hunter "Raising the Stakes", Blade Vol 5 (2023). Everything else out there is a mini series or one shot or separate appearances or side runs or separate universes, i.e. Darkhold, Vampire Nation.

dude is 54 though. yes sure many of the marvel people are in their 50's, but say they make 2 or 3 blade movies, dude might be in his 60's. they probably wanted a younger less muscular dude.

I remember an interview or a director commentary or something like that about the Blade movie where they said they made him a 'Daywalker' because it was more expensive to try and film outside at night and also a bigger pain in the ass. Lighting etc.

Not for nothing I remember Blade from the Spider-Man cartoon from the 90’s. He was a day Walker then.

Rob… correction: Blade was released in 1998. I know this for a fact because, I saw Blade in the theaters in San Diego, when I was attending C school in North Island for my tenure with the US Navy. In 1999, I was still in Japan, which means I couldn’t have seen the film in theaters in San Diego at that time.

The Movie didn't invent the Day walker it was the 90s Spiderman Cartoon. That's the first mention of him being a half Vampire

Lots that I didn't know here. But I always had a problem with the art on Blade books after the movies. They always seemed to want some alternative style instead just letting, for example, a Bryan Hitch or Sean Chen or Trevor Hairsine go to work and create the mood. That rarely happens with X-Men or other "top" titles. Thanks, Rob, for always sharing your knowledge.

Worth noting, Blade appeared in the animated Spiderman cartoon in the 90s prior to the movies too. That could have contributed to the film being made

You can totally make compelling stories about characters who hunt vampires without using a bunch of crossovers and such. A certain blonde ex-cheerleader proved that 😏…
