"Blade" hits the small screen

Finally, the wait is over.

“Blade: The Series” arrives tonight on Spike TV.

And you thought I was going to talk about that little Superman movie again, didn’t you?

In “Blade,” airing at 8 p.m., Kirk “Sticky Fingaz” Jones takes over the title role from Wesley Snipes, who starred as the vampire hunter in three movies. “Blade,” of course, is based on the character from Marvel Comics.

Marvel’s got a new comic-book series starring Blade, but you’ll have to wait until September for it. It’s written by Marc Guggenheim and drawn by Howard Chaykin and the first issue has some interesting guest-stars: Dracula and Spider-Man.
