Valiant Beyond: Bloodshot: Special Variant B (Zaffino)

THE ULTIMATE TEST BEGINS. ONE SHOT AT A TIME. Before Roy Harrison becomes the ultimate Bloodshot, he faces his deadliest test yet… and it’s lethal. Dropped into the wastelands of Australia alongside two fellow Bloodshot candidates, Roy must battle high-tech security, rogue drones, and deadly private guards to take down billionaire tech magnate Brad Mahoney. Survival comes at a cost—the mission tests both mind and body to their limits.Intercut with surreal flashbacks and symbolic memories of his fractured past, this SPECIAL ISSUE explores Roy’s early life, his grueling training in the Red Ops maze, and the relentless evolution that forges him into the perfect weapon. Every mission, every setback, every resurrection brings him closer to becoming THE Bloodshot, ready to face the next challenge. Writer Dan Abnett (RAI; FALLEN WORLD) and artist Guillermo Fajardo (RESURGENCE, VALIANT BEYOND: THE X-O MANOWAR) deliver a tense, action-packed tale that sets the stage for the next evolution of Bloodshot Beyond.
