A reluctant hunter steps into the family business

Ham Helsing inherits a monster-hunting legacy he never wanted, after his daredevil brother’s death leaves the family work to him. His first assignment—to hunt a vampire—puts his preference for painting and poetry alongside the practical demands of the job. The setup gives this humorous graphic novel a clear tension between inherited expectations and Ham’s own interests, while introducing teamwork and the possibility that appearances can mislead. As the first book in a series, it establishes Ham’s place in a family tradition of adventurers and monster hunters.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A good match for kids ages 9–12 who enjoy humorous graphic novels.

Book overview

The monster hunt is on! A rip-roaring graphic novel adventure about the latest in a famous family of vampire-hunting pigs, inspired by legendary monster slayer Van Helsing!

Ham Helsing is the descendant of a long line of adventurers and monster hunters--who don't often live to rest on their laurels. Ham has always been the odd pig out, preferring to paint or write poetry instead of inventing dangerous (dumb) new ways to catch dangerous creatures.

His brother Chad was the daredevil carrying on the family legacy of leaping before looking, but after his death, it's down to Ham. Reluctantly, he sets out on his first assignment, to hunt a vampire. But Ham soon learns that people aren't always what they seem and that you need a good team around you to help save your bacon!
