(W) Lonnie Nadler & Various (A) Ken Lashley, Rags Morales (CA) Felipe Massafera Before a weapon is deployed in battle, it must be designed, refined, field-tested. Bloodshot was no exception. In the early days of the private military contractor Project Rising Spirit, the nanite-infused super-soldier who would one day become their most violent and valuable asset was a resource to be mined - and it was up an enterprising team of scientists to ensure he did what he was told. But memory is a tricky thing...and the man Bloodshot used to be won't let go of his past so easily... Writers Kevin Grevioux (New Warriors), Eliot Rahal (The Paybacks), and Lonnie Nadler and Zac Thompson (Cable) team up with distinguished artists Ken Lashley (Black Panther), Rags Morales (Action Comics), and more to open a door once closed and reveal answers to questions that Bloodshot himself would never think to ask! Collecting BLOODSHOT RISING SPIRIT #1-8.
