Published Mon, 05 Oct 2015 16:45:15 -0500

Valiant Entertainment and Quarantine Studio have announced the Bloodshot by David Aja 1/6 Scale Limited Statue – the first-ever officially licensed Valiant statue. Based on the artwork of artist David Aja (Hawkeye, Immortal Iron Fist), this cold-cast resin statue recreates Aja's cover for Bloodshot #1 (2012) and stands tall at nearly 15 inches and will be limited to only 300 cast.

Brought back from the dead and infused with cutting-edge nanotechnology by private security contractor Project Rising Spirit, Bloodshot is a nearly unstoppable killing machine equipped with enhanced strength, speed, endurance, and healing. Created by Kevin VanHook, Don Perlin, and Bob Layton in 1992, Bloodshot is one of the most successful new comic book characters of the past two decades with more than 100 issues published and lifetime sales of more than 7 million copies in multiple languages around the world. After returning with a sold-out new series in 2012, Bloodshot's latest chapter began in the pages of BLOODSHOT REBORN – a new ongoing series from New York Times best-selling writer Jeff Lemire and artists Mico Suayan and Butch Guice.

Valiant recently announced that it partnered with Sony Pictures and Original Film to bring two of the publisher's most acclaimed superhero franchises – Bloodshot and Harbinger – to the big screen over the course of five feature films that will culminate with the shared universe crossover film, Harbinger Wars.
