Fans of the 2003 film Underworld should be interested in this one – a comic adaptation of the movie, its sequel (Underworld: Evolution) and an un-filmed prequel called Red in Tooth and Claw, which occurs hundreds of years before the action in Underworld. In case you don’t know, the original Underworld film was an alternate world type of story, where vampires and werewolves are battling a gruesome war in the shadows of the real world. Selene, the vampiric anti-heroine of the films, is a superb werewolf hunter, thanks in part to her lust for revenge, since she believes her family was slaughtered by the lycanthropic beasts. But she rescues and falls in love with a man who is bitten by a werewolf and, of course, catches the plague, creating something with a smattering more depth than, well, you know, Blade.
