Death of Doctor Strange: Bloodstone #1

Elsa Bloodstone stares down the reader with a double-barrel shotgun leveled point-blank on this striking opener from the Death of Doctor Strange crossover event. David Nakayama's cover captures the monster hunter in full swagger — orange combat suit, heavy utility belts, a rifle slung over one shoulder, and a swirling magenta void of dark energy crackling behind her. With Tini Howard writing and Ig Guara on interior art, this 2022 one-shot puts one of Marvel's toughest supernatural hunters front and center at a moment when the world's Sorcerer Supreme is gone.
