SS-Obersturmführer Rip van Winkle is an officer in Millennium, utilizing a long barreled flintlock musket with "magical" homing bullets. Though she is powerful, It is unknown whether she is a vampire or a modified human. She already encountered Alucard during WWII, and fears the coming of "Samiel", fashioning herself as  "Kaspar", the protagonist of the opera "Der Freischütz".  She leads the first "sortie" against the British when she lands a boarding crew aboard the British carrier HMS Eagle, killing all the crew, including the vampire operatives that had been planted on board.

Hellsing, a secret organization of the British government, has long been battling supernatural threats to keep the people safe from creatures of the night. The current leader, Integra Wingates Hellsing controls her own personal army to eliminate the undead beings, but even her highly trained soldiers pale in comparison to her most trusted vampire exterminator, a man by the name of Alucard, who is actually a powerful vampire himself. Along with Integra's mysterious butler and Alucard's new vampire minion, Seras Victoria, The Hellsing Organization must face not only regular ghouls and vampires, but a rivaling secret organization from the Vatican, and Millennium, an enigmatic group of madmen spawned by a certain war over 50 years ago... 
A bloody battle between monsters is about to begin, the dead are dancing, and all hell is singing...

Note: The chapter count includes a three-chapter side-story, "Crossfire".

Hellsing, an organization devoted to the elimination of the vampire threat, has recently uncovered information regarding the attempted production of "man-made" undead. The world is presently in the thick of WWII, and the current leader of Hellsing fears the Nazis could potentially use these creatures as front-line super-soldiers. Although the technology of creating artificial vampires is still in its infancy, it has advanced enough to be a serious threat. In an attempt to put a stop to this perverse and dangerous experimentation, Hellsing has sent two of its most skillful agents to Poland. A young man by the name of Walter C. Dornes - a.k.a. "The Angel of Death," and Alucard, an ancient vampire currently in forced service to the Hellsing Organization. Together, they attempt to stop the progress of the Nazi's efforts.
