In the comic Blade was a normal human for most purposes except that he wore shaded goggles, presumably to protect against bright light (a vampire weakness). Blade's initial mission was to avenge his mother's death, and in his quest he would fight many vampires including Dracula. Due to his mercurial temperament, Blade had a strained but steady relationship with Quincy Harker, Rachel Van Helsing, and Frank Drake: vampire hunters dedicated to destroying Dracula. Blade eventually encountered Hannibal King, a private detective who had been turned vampire by Deacon Frost. While Blade initially distrusted King, the two teamed up to destroy Frost, forging a lasting friendship between Blade and King.

They battled various supernatural villains such as the Darkholders, Hydra's DOA, the Lilin, and Varnae. Doctor Strange is a sorcerer, featured in Marvel Comics. ...
Traits In the films, Deacon Frost said that Blade "possesses all of the strengths of a vampire, but none of their weaknesses." While not entirely true, since he lusts for blood, he does have numerous abilities. Among these powers are enhanced strength, dexterity, and senses. He speaks Czech, Russian and to a degree the Vampire language, and has a great deal of knowledge about hunting vampires.
