Written by Corinna Bechko (known for Cruel Universe and Green Lantern: Earth One) and illustrated by Andrea Sorrentino (Gideon Falls, Old Man Logan), with colors by Dave Stewart (Hellboy), Blood Type boasts a stellar creative team. The first issue features multiple covers by Sorrentino, Miguel Mercado (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Albert Monteys (Universe!), and Naomi Franq (Black Hammer: Barbalien).

Oni Press provides this synopsis:

WHEN YOU'RE A VAMPIRE, EVERYBODY SUCKS . . . SOONER OR LATER! Meet Ada, an immortal vampire whose past catches up to her in an idyllic Caribbean resort. A paradise filled with wealthy tourists and superstitious locals—a perfect hunting ground for a vamp seeking escape! But Ada's new hunting ground becomes a deadly game of cat and mouse as a different kind of predator, driven by greed and power, emerges. Who will survive this clash of fangs and ambition?

Bechko describes the series as a "wicked tale" featuring a compelling anti-heroine, while Sorrentino highlights the creative team's shared passion for horror and the unique challenge of tapping into readers' deepest fears.
