Yoshiki x Stan Lee Blood Red Trailer Revealed

Yoshiki Hayashi legendary drummer for Japanese Rock band X-Japan has not only been transforming his creations that spread across many genres of music, he himself has been transformed in the comic book series, Blood Red Dragon, which stars a fictionalized version of himself and was done in collaboration with American comic book legends Stan Lee and Todd McFarlane.

The series had comic books #0-3. The final issue was comic book #3 released in January 2012, but on May 14, 2013 a new trailer has emerged from Yoshiki’s Youtube channel which states “Coming Soon” at the end. Are we to look forward to a new issue? I guess we will have to be patient and just wait!

About the comic:

For thousands of years a great power has been lost—dormant, it lays in wait for a champion worthy of its gifts. Now, as dark forces gather for an epic assault on the world of Man, a warrior will rise… and the might of the BLOOD RED DRAGON will be reborn.

Haunted by a melody of surprising, almost mystical, beauty, Yoshiki unwitting summons the ancient power of the BLOOD RED DRAGON, a guardian creature who millennia ago defeated the dark forces of Oblivion.

With the musical heart of the world—the very essence of life itself—slowly being destroyed by agents of Oblivion’s villainous will, it falls upon Yoshiki and the devastating force that rests within him to ultimately stand between humanity and total annihilation.
