"Chapter One" of DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, written by Matthew Rosenberg and illustrated by Otto Schmidt with colors by Pierluigi Casolino and letters by Tom Napolitano, kicks off a high-stakes clash across the DC Universe. Black Adam, Raven, and Power Girl ambush Mister Miracle to seize the miracle baby, but Barda’s fury erupts when she intervenes—only to be met with resistance from Supergirl and Lobo. Meanwhile, Constantine’s deal with Queen Barbara creates a dangerous diversion, allowing Green Arrow, Black Canary, and their allies to infiltrate her tower and uncover something far worse than expected. The cover, by Otto Schmidt, captures the chaos in bold, dynamic strokes.
In "Chapter One" from DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, John Stewart and Kyle Rayner return from a year in deep space to find Earth transformed—its cities overrun by vampires, its survivors hunted. Representing the vampire queen Barbara Gordon, vampire Gorilla Grodd delivers a chilling ultimatum: join forces with the vampires to stop Damian Wayne, or face total annihilation.
In "Chapter Two" of DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, Lois Lane seeks uneasy peace with Aquaman, now the vampire leader following Queen Barbara’s death, while Oliver Queen leads a dangerous mission to dismantle a facility believed to be the source of synthetic blood fueling the vampire war—only to find the truth far more complicated than expected. Meanwhile, Wonder Woman confronts Talia and Alfred in a tense, personal clash, her fury driving her to uncover the hidden whereabouts of Damian.
In "Chapter Three" from DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, Alfred—now wielding Hal Jordan’s power ring—faces off against Wonder Woman in a clash of wills and legacy. As Green Arrow rallies a team to rescue captive humans, Damian joins forces with the heroes in a desperate hunt for the rumored "miracle" child, a key to ending the war that rages between vampires and humanity, with Black Adam’s forces closing in.
In "Chapter Four" from DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, Damian uncovers a shocking truth—that the new Batman is none other than his grandfather, Ra's al Ghul—setting off a tense clash with the newly empowered Green Lantern Alfred Pennyworth. As humans and vampires alike hunt for Scott Free and his miraculous child, loyalties are tested and old secrets rise in a world teetering on the edge of darkness.
In "Chapter Five" of DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, Black Adam, Raven, and Power Girl corner Mister Miracle in a desperate bid to secure the miracle baby—only for an enraged Barda to storm in, demanding her child. As Constantine strikes a dangerous pact with Queen Barbara to hand over Damian, Green Arrow and Black Canary exploit the chaos to infiltrate the Queen’s tower, uncovering something far more sinister than expected. With Supergirl and Lobo holding off Barda, Scott seizes the moment to flee with the infant, leaving the fate of the child—and the war—hanging in the balance.
In "Chapter Six" from DC vs. Vampires: World War V #1, Aquaman races to protect Mister Miracle’s infant, forcing a tense standoff with Jayna and Mera as the city teeters on the edge of collapse. While Lois and Ollie argue over humanity’s next move, a mysterious stranger delivers a chilling warning—just as the vampires unleash a full-scale attack. With Darkseid’s arrival shifting the balance of power, the fate of the survivors hangs in the air.
