| 1. Hellboy Library Edition Volume 3: Conqueror Worm And Strange Places |

By: Mike Mignola By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse October 07, 2009
To start with the actual printing is significantly nicer than the paperbacks. The size is a good deal bigger and the printing is stunning. The colors and ink are both very vibrant, and it is a delight to look at. Just opening the book it looks striking. The hardback is a nice touch, and thus far the binding has held up very well. The covers are cloth-covered and very nice to handle despite the... more

| 3. Hellboy, Vol. 1: Seed of Destruction (v. 1) | 
|
By: Mike Mignola, John Byrne By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse December 10, 2003
Mike Mignola came up with Hellboy in the early 90s and somehow I'm reading it for the first time in supremely late 2009. And the funny thing is, I loved it and probably like it more now than I would of then. My tastes have changed and my appreciation for different kinds of art have changed. Hellboy's intro and the entire team involved with the book is awesome. Liz and Abe add to Hellboy like any... more

By: Mike Mignola, John Byrne By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse May 14, 2008
Any comic book fan would be delighted to have this on their shelf. If need a gift for a friend who reads comics, is into anime, or any of that geeky stuff, BUY THIS. He will thank you, I guarantee it. Here's why:
When I tell people I read comics, they only picture spandex-wearing, huge-breasted women and overly-muscular men lifting cars and shooting lazers out of their fingertips. ... more

| 5. Hellboy, Vol. 2: Wake the Devil (v. 2) | 
|
By: Mike Mignola By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse December 10, 2003
When I bought Hellboy vol. 1, some of the pages started falling out. I thought this might have just been me, but when I went to check the review for it, I noticed a few other people were complaining about faulty glue in the binding. Well, so far Vol. 2 has failed to do the same, and I thought it worth mentioning that this time the binding was not an issue. Aside from that, great book, great... more

| 6. Hellboy, Vol. 8: Darkness Calls | 
|
By: Mike Mignola, Duncan Fegredo, Dave Stewart Publisher: Dark Horse Comics June 09, 2008
"Darkness calls" is a tough book. Here Hellboy engages in a grand fight against "Koshchei the Deathless". The fight takes place in no other than hell. And Koshchei is literally deathless (and we find Hellboy is too). Mignola's mingleling with mythology is facinating. Fegredo's artwork and Stewart's coloring are superb (if you like style you will like this)h. All the characters have supernatural motives... more

| 7. Hellboy Library Edition, Vol. 2: The Chained Coffin, The Right Hand of Doom, and Others (v. 2) | 
|
By: Mike Mignola By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse October 15, 2008
Almost everything is great about this book and the other two published volumes.
My major gripe is that the original covers are in a duotone for some reason instead of the original full color. Also, the image on the front cover of this and the other two books is very easily mangled if you are not careful handling it.
Maybe when they are done with all the volumes there will... more

| 8. Hellboy, Vol. 3: The Chained Coffin and Others (v. 3) | 
|
By: Mike Mignola By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse February 04, 2004
While the previous two "Hellboy" collections ("Seed of Destruction" and "Wake the Devil") were both bang-up entertainment and shouldn't be missed, this third collection is the first to truly fire on all cylinders. The thickest volume to date, "The Chained Coffin and others" features a variety of stand-alone tales of varying lengths, as opposed to the one big story arc that each of the previous volumes... more

| 10. Hellboy, Vol. 5: Conqueror Worm (v. 5) | 
|
By: Mike Mignola By: Mike Mignola Publisher: Dark Horse February 04, 2004
This is a damn good edition in the Hellboy series. Riddled with quotes from Poe's poem "Conqueror Worm", and saturated with Mike Mignola's genius, this book does not disappoint.
Some of Mr. Mignola's best artwork can be seen here, and the writing is perfectly in step with it. The artwork and writing are almost too simple, and yet there is an incredible depth to both. It astounds me every... more
