Three issues published by Dark Horse 1994

The debut of an entire new story arc in Matt Wagner's ongoingGrendel Tales series, this issue begins the tale of Petrus Christus, the lone survivor of a town gruesomely massacred by a band of Grendels. In order to seek revenge, Petrus must himself adopt the mantle of Grendel -- but, unbeknownst to him, the price may be too terrible to pay! "Black Blood" is written and illustrated by Rob Walton, and painted by Bernie Mireault and Kathryn Delaney, using the same animation-cel style coloring that earned them an Eisner Award nomination forGrendel: War Child.
