The Immortal Enemy unfortunately manages to kill Kay, but before she died she stripped away Bloodshot's nanites and left him with one name: "Ray".īloodshot's story would continue with Bloodshot Reborn, a series by Jeff Lemire (who co-wrote The Valiant). With Gilad and the rest of the Valiant universe facing off against The Immortal Enemy, Bloodshot was left as the last line of defense for then-current Geomancer Kay McHenry, allowing them time to bond. He would quickly transition into The Valiant, where he would play a central role. This series lasted for 25 issues, ending on November 2014, while also having brief team-ups with Unity, particularly during the Armor Hunters event. Now on the run, he's dedicated to his own mission: finding out who he truly is. He is once again taken in by P.R.S., but he manages to escape. For years they have used him to complete special missions, implanting him with Fake Memories to motivate him and wiping him clean upon return. Truth is, Bloodshot is the secret weapon of arms manufacturer Project Rising Spirit. Yeah, most of that last paragraph was a lie. However, a sudden ambush leaves him in the hands of an old scientist that does something unexpected: he downloads Bloodshot's current memories for him to see. Regretfully accepting, he's injected with powerful Nanomachines that increase his physical abilities and healing, and is sent for reconnaissance.

Raymond Garrison is a former soldier living happily with his wife when he receives troubling news: an old war buddy of his has been captured in Afghanistan, and he's the only one who can save him. He was since rebooted by Valiant in 2012, with a new series by Duane Swierczynski. Bloodshot is a Valiant Comics character created in 1992 by Kevin VanHook and Yvel Guichet.
