Synopsis for 1st story
All users of the Dark Force become portals to the dark dimension and because of this, the world becomes shrouded in darkness and this allows the vampires to continuously attack, and to spread further and further. The superheroes fight them as best they can and the Avengers receive a message from Blade who also contacts Spider-Man asking him to do something. The Avengers are defeated by the Bloodcoven, but Black Panther manages to prevent Captain America from being captured because he knows that the world will need a symbol to resist the vampire attack. Blade reaches Dr. Strange and explains what is happening, and immediately bites him, declaring that he is the leader of the group that triggered the emergency, the Structure.
