Captain Kronos is the hero of the Titan Comics series Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter. He is a former soldier active in 17th century Europe who dedicated his life to hunting vampires after returning home from a campaign to find that his family had been slaughtered by them. He works with his mentor, former vampire hunter Professor Grost, and with Carla, a village girl they rescued from the stocks where she was being punished for dancing on the Sabbath.
