BRZRKR will return this fall with another one-shot set in the immortal warrior’s past. BRZRKR: The Bleeding Tide will feature “B.”, as he’s called, being saved from the depths of the ocean by a pirate captain with a lot of secrets.
Monstress co-creator Marjorie Liu teams with artist Garry Brown of Babyteeth and The Massive fame on the title, which is the latest in a series of one-shots featuring the Keanu Reeves-created immortal warrior. It follows 2024’s BRZRKR: A Faceful of Bullets, 2023’s BRZRKR: Poetry of Madness and the original BRZRKR series co-written by the John Wick and Bill & Ted actor and his writing partner Matt Kindt.
BOOM! shared more details on what to expect from The Bleeding Tide:
Can B. quell the bleeding tide?
When a pirate captain follows a strange heartbeat into the depths of the ocean, she finds a box chained in irons—and the deformed mass of the immortal warrior B. inside it.
Now awakened, B. must jump into battle to defend the crew from an ambush at sea despite rising concerns.
What is the captain after with such a dangerous bounty on her head, and more importantly, what is she hiding?
