In Bloodshot we trust! ?? ??? ??? ??? ??? ?? Project Rising Spirit ? America?s greatest exporter of classified weapons technology ? has achieved a breakthrough: a contagious, airborne nanite dispersion prototype that can turn the population of any city into an army of indestructible soldiers. A doomsday virus capable of destroying an enemy nation from the inside out. A machine-made pathogen that can completely rewrite human physiology...and hardcode every man, woman, and child with the same cutting-edge technology that created their greatest weapon: Bloodshot. But now...Project Rising Spirit?s top-secret contagion has been released onto the streets of America?s greatest metropolis: New York City. As mayhem engulfs Manhattan, Bloodshot must lead the most dangerous invasion ever waged on American soil and keep a runaway pandemic from toppling armies and governments...and threatening to destroy humanity itself. In the tradition of THE VALIANT, the Big Apple turns blood red in a pivotal new standalone comics event from New York Times best- selling writer Jeff Lemire (BLOODSHOT REBORN,?Extraordinary X-Men) and superstar artist Doug Braithwaite (ARMOR HUNTERS,?Justice)!
