RAI #0; Valiant Comics; 1st Full Appearance & Origin of Bloodshot

Description: RAI #0; Valiant Comics; 1st Full Appearance & Origin of Bloodshot Origin and 1st full app of new Rai (Rising Spirit). Partial Origin and 1st full app of Bloodshot (1st cameo appearance occurred in Eternal Warrior #4). This issue does not have a card (coupon). In a tale over 2000 years, a Geomancer tells the story of the blood of heroes and how it changed the course of history in "The Blood of Heroes." Plot by Jim Shooter, David Lapham, Bob Layton & Jon Hartz. Script by Layton, pencils by Lapham, inks by Tom Ryder. Rai’s story began in 1992 when Project Rising Spirit successfully infused a human with "The Blood of Heroes." This was a special synthetic blood composed of microscopic nano-machines. Rising Spirit had infused this into a subject codenamed Bloodshot, and the nano-machines gave him incredible speed, agility, an accelerated healing factor, and a strange ability to control machines. Following Bloodshot’s death in 2028, others would try to control the Blood of Heroes. Still, its secrets would become lost until 3216 when Japanese anti-grannies rebelled against their island’s all-powerful master computer. To stop them, the computer created the Rais in the image of Bloodshot. The Rai’s put down the rebellion and obtained the blood, which they stored in a secure vault. There it lay until 4002, when the last Rai, Takao Konishi, would infuse himself with it to become a hero. We try to describe comic defects that can not be easily seen. Hence, we rely on the large images we provide, which generally show the front cover, back cover, side views, and centerfold, which will show the quality of the interior pages.
