Welcome to Canon Events, a bi-weekly column where I’ll take a look at some of the darkest comic moments from our favorite heroes and villains and how they left an indelible impact on fans and sometimes even the comic industry.Anyone who’s been enjoying my column for a bit knows that I’m a big fan of horror as well, so I couldn’t miss the opportunity to dive into this week’s theme here at CBR. And what better way to do that than with one of the most successful horror comic characters to ever make it to the big screen, Marvel’s vampire hunter himself, Blade.When Blade first appeared in 1973’s Tomb of Dracula #10 (by Marv Wolfman, Gene Colan, Jack Abel, Petra Goldberg and Denise Vladimer), he was still considered a dhampir, or a half-human, half-vampire hybrid. And much like the film, young Eric Brooks’ enhancements came from his blood being infected with some vampiric enzymes after Deacon Frost fed on his mother during his birth.
