The lead character in House of Slaughter is Aaron Slaughter, and the story focuses on his teenage years, when he was training to become a monster hunter with the Order. The series debuted in October, and the first issue had orders for over 460,000 copies (see “McFarlane, BOOM! Announce New Mid-Six-Figure Launches”).
