It’s up to a secret alliance of human mages and fantasy beings to stop him - CERBERUS - an organization who uses state of the art hi-tech, and ancient magical methods to guard the rifts between Earth and Abaddon, to keep the worlds from crossing.

The problem is Dylan, a New York native, has no idea he’s an elf at all!

But for Cassie Hack, this ain't no popcorn movie. Cassie, the daughter of the notorious Slasher, the Lunch Lady, travels the world with her monstrous partner, Vlad, hunting and destroying Slashers where ever they may be, whatever form they may take. But Cassie may have met her match. The residents of the small town of Eminence, Indiana are becoming victims, one-by-one, of a viscous undead killer and his army of zombie pets. Cassie and Vlad will have to wade, hip deep, through undead hamsters, cats, and dogs to save a beautiful veterinarian from a monster that makes all those "popcorn" Slashers look like Mother Teresa.
From the demented minds of Lovebunny & Mr. Hell writer/G.I. Joe artist Tim Seeley, and Vampirella penciler, Stefano Casseli.
