Titan Comics are continuing their Hammer Horror line with further adventures for Captain Kronos – Vampire Hunter!

Based on the 1974 film written and directed by Brian Clemens, Captain Kronos will be the second Hammer title following Peter Milligan and Ronilson Freire’s The Mummy: Palimpsest. Written by Dan Abnett (Aquaman, Guardians of the Galaxy) with art by Tom Mandrake (Sidekick, The Spectre) Titan Comics’ new series chronicles the adventures of the mysterious and powerful Kronos who has dedicated his life to destroying the evil vampire plague. Once a victim himself, the debonair Hunter knows the vampire’s strengths and weaknesses as well as the dangers of confronting the potent forces of darkness. Now the cult-classic adventure continues in comics form!

The original film starred Horst Janson as the captain, and John Cater as his companion, Hieronymous Grost. Caroline Munro, John Carson and Shane Briant also starred. A novelisation was belatedly published in 2011, written by Guy Adams, while the film was adapted for comics in The House of Hammer issues 1 to 3
