In a world caught in the inescapable stranglehold of evil, mankind is defended by a lone force for good—the globetrotting monster hunter Van Helsing. Just in time for the release of the visionary supernatural thriller starring Hugh Jackman, expanding on the legacy of Universal horror films, Van Helsing is also the newest addition to Dark Horse’s horror line. This special debut issue brings together Josh Dysart, co-creator of the cult-hit Violent Messiahs and writer of DC’s new series The Demon: Driven Out, and artist J. Alexander, creator of Sirius’s Empty Zone series and recent contributor to Tales of the Vampires. No strangers to monster comics, Dysart and Alexander dig deeper into the mysterious world of the legendary character of Van Helsing, born in the pages of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
