On the surface , there ’s no actual sales sales pitch needed for the latterly announcedWolverine vs. Blade Special # 1 , a one - shot comic book that will play off the antiheroes against eachother in what appear to be a truly unrelenting battle of blades , blood , and superhuman healing factors . That ’s judging by the cover art for the issue , which is almost all the info Marvel has let slip . But let ’s be honorable : hardly any fans will need more convincing , since the winner is going to have bragging right alone in the world of Marvel Comics .
The undivided issue ( for obvious reason ) story will be compose by formerArrowshowrunner Marc Guggenheim , who has experience writing the funny escapade of both Blade and Wolverine in the past .

And no offense to the taradiddle Guggenheim has craft to convey this fight to life , but if a prospective buyer is n’t concerned in check page after Thomas Nelson Page of Logan vs. Daywalker bloodsport alone … this narrative probably is n’t for you .
