Lupin is a half-breed in the sense that he's part-human, part-werewolf. I don't think we need to take the word "breed" literally when speaking about fictional creatures.
But Lupin's a mutant, really. He mutated from wholly human to half and half (or more accurately, 3/4 - 1/4). But mutant smacks of science fiction, doesn't it? Half-breed works as far as I'm concerned.
