The adventure begins. Monsters roam through Acropolis, swallowing children into the horrors of their shadowy underworld. Only one man is a match for them—the genius vigilante Haggard West. Unfortunately Haggard West is dead. Acropolis is desperate, but when its salvation comes in the form of a twelve-year-old demigod, nobody is more surprised than Battling Boy himself.
