Even the heroes are not immune from the effects of the plague, with many Avengers, including Captain America falling to it. In this dark hours, a group of survivors come together to discover a way to end the outbreak and save the world from being a permanent hellscape. 

In a recent teaser of the show, Marvel introduced the character of Blade Knight, an amalgamation of Blade, the vampire hunter, and Moon Knight, the agent of justice who receives his powers from the Egyptian god Khonshu.
