Bloodshot #1 Chinese Edition front cover

This is the 2015 Chinese reprint of Bloodshot #1 from the 2012 series.

You are the shade of gray that freedom requires. The perfect confluence of military necessity and cutting-edge technology. A walking WikiLeaks that is a reservoir of dirty secrets that could set the world on fire. And you've just been captured.
