Silver Lake Slasher Stalks Bloodshot

Silver Lake isn't to be confused with Crystal Lake, but that doesn't mean it's any less dangerous. In fact, Valiant's own Bloodshot is making his way there for the publisher's first-ever annual-sized extravaganza, clocking in at 64 pages of goodness. Bloodshot Reborn Annual 2016 #1 will feature the talents of Jeff Lemire and Kano when it hits stores March 23. The work will also feature covers by Kano, Ryan Bodenheim, Robert Charles Wilson IV and Keron Grant.

Terror doesn’t wait for Friday at Camp Silver Lake! A masked menace has stalked this camp for years, but what happens when one unstoppable killing machine comes up against another? Bloodshot is about to bring his bloody brand of justice to the quiet shores of Silver Lake to take on America’s most notorious slasher. Throw into the mix a special Bloodsquirt solo adventure for good measure. The story will sit alongside all-new stories and standalone tales from a cast of talents, including Ray Fawkes, Michel Fiffe and Benjamin Marra, Paul Maybury and more.
