Not a story that everyone realizes but Marvel was about to be outta business until the Blade movie saved them
Yeah, the Mid to late 90s was to Marvel as a whole. Blade came in, as a realistic comic book movie with blood and gore, and endless classic quotes, and saved the whole Marvel line as well as comic book movies in its entirety.
To see a PG-13 Blade is to me. A Vampire movie with no blood? Might as well put a Punisher Movie with no guns!
