Arkhaven Comics has announced the completion of Volume One of the comic book MIDNIGHT’S WAR. The team is currently awaiting the arrival of the proof, after which they will proceed to sign off on it and subsequently distribute it to the backers and release it for wider distribution.
MIDNIGHT’S WAR, created by Arkhaven Comics, written by the renowned Chuck Dixon from Marvel and DC Comics, and is brought to life through the captivating illustrations of Ademir Leal, with colours by Arklight Studios.
The futuristic vampire comic thriller MIDNIGHT’S WAR is described at Arkhaven as: “In the year 8466 of the Cainite calendar, in the aftermath of a catastrophic global economic crisis, the vampire tribes came out of the shadows for the first time in more than 2,600 years and revealed themselves to an unsuspecting humanity. With near-complete control of the media, the national governments, the global financial system, and most of the major international institutions, most of humanity was helpless to resist the vampiric bid for power. But drawing inspiration from the crusading orders of the Middle Ages, twelve young men joined together in a new military order, The Knights of Saint Michael and of the Catacombs of Rome. Armed with little more than their faith and blood that is poison to their enemies, The Knights of Saint Michael wage a desperate war against the vampire lords of the midnight world.”

Arkhaven’s comic series is set in a distant future marred by an economic crisis, and delves into a world where vampire tribes emerge from hiding, seeking to assert dominance over Earth and humanity. These vampires swiftly seize control of Earth’s institutions, including media and governments, establishing a new world order under the banner of the Great Concord of Gomorrah.
Under this new order, humans are mandated to provide a designated amount of blood to the vampire authorities annually. Despite the widespread subjugation of humanity, pockets of resistance persist. In this vampire-ruled world, the Knights of St. Michael and the Catacombs engage in a fierce battle to liberate humanity from the clutches of the undead.

When they were doing the story arc that is a police procedural, but in a world of vampires, it was my favorite comic in any format/medium.
