| Bloodstrike |
Rob Liefeld has made a deal with Adi Shankar‘s 1984 Private
Defense Contractors to turn his comic Bloodstrike into a feature.
The comic centers on “a Bloodstrike unit consisting of a
team of super-soldiers who have secretly been imbued with vampire blood—making
them an elite strike force feared by all enemies.”
Bloodstrike was a top-secret, super-powered assassination
squad deployed covertly by the United States government. All of the members had
already died before becoming members of the team; they were brought back to life
by the government’s Project: Born Again…
The main character and team leader was Cabbot Stone (brother
of ex-Youngblood member and Brigade member Battlestone).
Other members included was: the four-armed Fourplay, the
ex-villain Deadlock, the power-armored Shogun, and the enigmatic Tag, who could
force people to “freeze in place” by touching them.
The computer in charge of teleporting the team was named
Roam. It had to re-charge its cells after each transport.
1984 Private Defense Contractors is also the studio that is
spearheading the all-female version of The Expendables.
