The graphic novel tells the story of the awakening of supreme evil on Earth. Lord Henry Baltimore is bitten by a demonic vampire bat on a WWI battlefield. The plague destroys his family, and Baltimore creates a team to hunt and fight the Red King, the embodiment of all evil.
Spinning out of Dark Horse’s announcement for their horror line at C2E2, the company continues to reveal new titles with the upcoming “Baltimore: Infernal Train” mini-series. The series will of course be written by Christopher Golden and Mike Mignola with art from Ben Stenbeck.
The series beings months after a devastating plague ends World War I, Europe is suddenly flooded with deadly vampires. Lord Henry Baltimore, a soldier determined to wipe out the monsters, is on the hunt for the creature responsible for this chaos and his own personal tragedy. What he uncovers is a terror as horrific and frightening as any he’s seen on the battlefield. Baltimore: Infernal Train finds our protagonist hiding out in Budapest awaiting the arrival of the sadistic Judge Duvic, when a strange woman shows up with a bizarre invention she promises will rid the world of vampire plague.
Christopher Golden checked in with Bloody-Disgusting to reveal details for the upcoming “Baltimore: Infernal Train”. Golden spoke candidly about the development of the series from a prose novel to comic book series, working with Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, and the current state of the Baltimore movie with writer/director David S. Goyer (Man of Steel). READ MORE
The latest Baltimore one-shot is an engaging and gritty, post-WWI apocalyptic adventure, fascinatingly woven into a double feature that sees our protagonist battling vampire soldiers in England, and fiendish monsters in France. Chronologically set amidst the action in Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden’s graphic novel of which it’s based on, but prior to the events in “The Plague Ships”, “Baltimore: The Widow and the Tank” documents Lord Henry Baltimore’s travels killing monsters, in hopes of finding The Red King and avenging his family.

Well, apparently that’s not the case as today it was announced that the scribe would be releasing a new arc in yet another of his titles, and this time it is “BALTIMORE”. Inside you can find all the info on the title. Read on for the skinny.
