Volume 1 - 1st printing. Story and art by Kumiko Suekane. On the eve of the Russian Revolution, our favorite Chiropteran-hunting duo masquerades as members of Tsar Nicholas Romanov's royal chamber orchestra. Saya begins to uncover some of the strange secrets of the Romanov royal family and-of course-finds some hideous Chiropteran beasts that are doing a little masquerading of their own. Despite being one of the Chiropteran 'originals,' Saya's devoted her life to eradicating the wilder, more vicious Chiropteran spawn who prey on humanity, and this short series embraces the same mix of action, humor, and horror. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 192 pages, B&W. Cover price $10.95.

Volume 2 - 1st printing. Story and art by Kumiko Suekane. For the three hundred years that the Romanov dynasty has been in power, they have led Russia through an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity, but recent peasant uprisings and a sickly heir have destabilized this once-proud royal family. In a desperate move, the Romanovs have unknowingly employed one of Diva's original Chevalier-whose motives are not to cure the ailing Prince Alexei Romanov, but to create an army of perfect, blood-craving Chiropterans! Using his influence to gain test subjects, this mysterious Chevalier has performed horrifying acts in the name of science, and he now has Hagi, Saya's Chevalier, in his clutches! On the eve of the Russian revolution, it's up to an unseasoned and unsure Saya to save Hagi, destroy the Chiropteran experiments, and track down her murderous twin sister before a horde of warrior Chiropterans are set loose to terrorize the unsuspecting Russian masses! But first, Saya will have to struggle with her conscience if she is to be strong enough to kill those of her friends who have been turned into monsters! The first four volumes of Blood+ manga have sold over 65,000 copies! The Dark Horse Blood+ manga series is the official adaptation and companion to the popular Production I.G/Aniplex anime series that became a hit on Adult Swim. Look for the Blood and Blood+ novels-also released by Dark Horse! Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 184 pages, B&W. Cover price $10.95.
