First Look: BLOODSHOT SALVATION #1 – 2017’s Most Unrelenting New Series Starts Here on September 20th! 

Jeff Lemire, Lewis LaRosa & Mico Suayan Unleash a Harrowing New Beginning for Valiant’s Eisner Award-Nominated Superhero Saga

As revealed at Entertainment Weekly, Valiant is proud to present the first lettered look inside BLOODSHOT SALVATION #1 –the FIRST ISSUE of the BLOCKBUSTER NEW ONGOING SERIES from New York Times best-selling writer Jeff Lemire (BLOODSHOT REBORN, Black Hammer) and extraordinary artists Lewis LaRosa (BLOODSHOT REBORN, SAVAGE) & Mico Suayan (BLOODSHOT REBORN)! On September 20th, violence, vengeance, and villains await Valiant’s machine-made soldier as Ray Garrison and his newborn daughter, Jessie, enter an unforgiving gauntlet of punishment that will bleed into the dark future that awaits them both…and will forever redefine the tragic and brutal legacy of Bloodshot for years to come!

His sacrifice will be her salvation…

“Jessie is the daughter of Magic and Bloodshot. I don’t think I’m spoiling anything by saying that she’s clearly taking after her father a little bit,” writer Jeff Lemire told Entertainment Weekly. “She’s a huge part of the series. She’s the central thing that ties everything together. But I think it’s better to have her be a mystery and let readers discover her through the story. She’s not going anywhere; she’s gonna be a major part of the universe going forward. She’s not just some gimmick.”

A bloody and vengeful new beginning for Jeff Lemire’s Eisner Award-nominated Bloodshot saga begins this September as Ray Garrison escapes his violent past to build the one thing he never thought he’d earn: a family. But when a hateful secret from his true love’s past threatens their fragile peace, Bloodshot will be forced to run headlong into a barrage of blood, bullets, and broken bones for a revenge-fueled assault that will have crushing consequences for those he holds most dear…

Now: In the arms of his beloved girlfriend Magic, Bloodshot has finally found hope for the future…in the form of the couple’s unborn child. But when Magic’s estranged family – a cruel and sadistic clan of homegrown criminals – re-emerge to lay claim to their lost daughter, Bloodshot will be pushed back to the brink of madness, mayhem, and warfare…

Soon: Eight years from today, Bloodshot’s daughter has inherited her father’s incredible abilities. Hunted by a high-tech kill squad called Omen, Jessie must hone her powers…and learn how to survive before the world is swallowed whole by the darkness that now pervades America…

Out of the record-setting success of X-O MANOWAR (2017) #1 – the year’s highest selling new series launch from any independent publisher – and the near-universal critical acclaim surrounding the recent release of SECRET WEAPONS #1 (of 4), the next great Valiant ICONS launch of 2017 starts here on September 20th in BLOODSHOT SALVATION #1, an epic new beginning and essential jumping-on point for Valiant’s unstoppable soldier! Across 2017, look for FAITH AND THE FUTURE FORCE #1 (of 4), WAR MOTHER #1 (of 4), ETERNITY #1 (of 4), NINJA-K #1 and QUANTUM AND WOODY! (2017) #1 to join the ICONS line-up with major new series as the largest independent superhero universe in comics gears up for a major leap forward.

On September 20th, Bloodshot’s most devastating mission yet begins with a tooth-and-nail fight to protect the family he’d give anything for… Witness the carnage to come as Jeff Lemire, Mico Suayan, and Lewis LaRosa unleash Valiant’s must-read series of the season in BLOODSHOT SALVATION #1 – featuring covers by Kenneth Rocafort (The Ultimates), Monika Palosz (DIVINITY III: STALINVERSE), Tomas Giorello (X-O MANOWAR), Ryan Bodenheim (The Dying & The Dead), Greg Smallwood (Moon Knight), and Dave Johnson (100 Bullets)!
