Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Bloodstone is a 2001-2002 four-issue Marvel comic book mini-series written by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, with art by Michael Lopez.Elise Bloodstone and her eighteen-year-old daughter Elsa have arrived in Boston in order to inspect the house of Elise's late husband, Ulysses Bloodstone. Together, they meet the executor, Charles Barnabas, in order to finalize the deal, but deep in the house, Elsa finds something else altogether: a secret cave filled with trophies, including a Bloodgem choker, and the caretaker of the house, a Frankenstein's Monster named Adam, who tells Elsa that her father was a famous monster hunter. Wacky hijinks ensue.This mini-series is notable for introducing the character of Elsa Bloodstone, who would subsequently appear in Nextwave, but radically different: she went from a blonde, chipper eighteen-year-old who was just starting out as a monster hunter and never knew her father to a snarky redheaded twenty-something who had been taught practically from birth how to kill monsters by her father. This is the characterization that would stick, while her first mini-series can be chalked up to Early Installment Weirdness.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

comment
Elsa encounters a Frankenstein's Monster in the first issue, Dracula in the second, and a Mummy in the third. The only Universal monster missing is the Wolfman. In fact, in the fourth issue, when Adam teams up with Dracula to fight against a Nosferatu, he says that all they need is Abbott and Costello to make it feel like "old times."

Eat Me: It turns out that drinking a Bloodstone's blood is not good for a vampire. It is, in fact, fatal.
