The fact that he's essentially a high-tech Frankenstein's monster meant that it was easy for me to figure out what's the high-tech flip of other monsters. I was kind of picking up on some things that were there inherently and the body horror aspect of it. And for me, going back to the guy who read Bloodshot when it first came out and who has followed him throughout a lot of iterations, I think the things that work best with him were tilted towards the horror direction as well. I certainly have experience with superheroes and science fiction and fantasy stuff as well, but I think my attraction to stories is usually more on the horror side of things. Yeah, I think I'm a horror writer at heart, probably.

I was a little worried for the first couple weeks of this, but so far, I've been consistently busy. Most of my stuff is creator-owned, so I could kind of 'heads down and keep going.' And I was doing a lot of OGNs - I was doing two original graphic novels, and I was writing starting them, so those were six issues each worth of content.

Screen Rant: Everyone's been waiting for Bloodshot, but even if circumstances were different, I don't know how much you would be leaving your home right now. RELATED: Bloodshot is BLADE, Not Iron Man For Valiant's Movie Universe With the follow-up now in sight and set to arrive in comic book shops this September, Screen Rant got to speak with Seeley about the delayed cliffhanger, embracing the horror of this one of a kind hero, the next stage of his adventure, and more. Zombie soldiers, blood-sucking beasts, and two towering kaiju, just to name a few. Those who read the previous issue of Bloodshot #7 know the stakes have been raised beyond all previous marks, with Bloodshot's enemies unleashing the worst nightmares imaginable upon the world.
