Cover by Craig Gilmore and Malcolm Jones III. Written by Lisa Trusiani and Karl Bollers. Art by Craig Gilmore, Max Douglas and Rick Bryant. Big changes in direction and disposition are in store for Morbius as he falls fangs-first in love. Beginning with the tale "Jagged Edge" in this issue, the new creative team of Lisa Trusiani, Craig Gilmore and Rick Bryant are putting the vindictive vampire on an exciting new path -- a macabre mixture of horror, humor, drama and romance -- which will have fans laughing, crying and screaming. The story begins as a young woman named Lena is abducted from her homeland to be sold into slavery as an "adult entertainer" at one of New York's most notorious night clubs. When Morbius learns of Lena's plight, he goes into after-dark action to save her. That is, until she upstages Morbius and saves herself. On seeing this mere human woman's bravery and strength, Cupid's arrow hits Morbius right in the jugular. But this story has no fairy tale ending. Lena observes Morbius' deadly way of dealing with her captors and utterly rejects him, leading him to wonder whether a monster like him can ever hope to have a normal life. More importantly, Morbius must question the real reasons for his murderous methods of fighting crime. Has he been killing criminals in the name of justice or as a rationalization for his own bloodlust? Can Morbius stop drinking blood without killing himself? Can a vampire find human love? And what does a vampire do to get the stench of blood off his breath? The answers begin to unfold in this issue, which sports a fifth ink cover. Plus: Back-up story "Drainage System" by Karl Bollers and Max Douglas, and pin-ups by Ron Wagner, Craig Gilmore & Malcolm Jones III, D. Robertson & Mike Witherby, and Malcolm Jones III. 48 pages, full color. Cover price $1.95.
