Veteran comic book author Chuck Dixon (Batman, Punisher, Bane: Conquest) has signed on to pen Zenescope’s next Van Helsing mini-series: Van Helsing vs. The Werewolf.
Liesel Van Helsing, daughter of famed vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing, faces a terrifying new threat in Zenescope’s fifth installment of the comic book series that features one of its most popular characters. From a brutal werewolf attack on a high mountain ledge to an epic kung-fu brawl at the airport to a battle with vampires at 35,000 feet, the world’s greatest steampunk vampire hunter ventures across the globe in search of the Sword of Heaven, an ancient weapon that may be Van Helsing’s only chance at stopping one of the most dangerous enemies she has ever faced!
“Between the comic book and the new SyFy channel series that was inspired by her, Van Helsing has quickly grown into one of our most beloved characters.” said Zenescope’s Ralph Tedesco. “And we’re thrilled to have a writer of Chuck’s immense talent continuing her story with us.”
Van Helsing vs. The Werewolf #1 is set to be in comic stores everywhere July 5th. The final order cutoff deadline for retailers is June 12th.
