Product Description: At the end of World War II, American costumed-adventurer Lobster Johnson led an Allied attack on Hitler's space program, but not before the Nazis were able to launch the first man into space. Now, after sixty years, Hellboy is partnered with an artifical man - a Frankenstein's monster implanted by Bureau scientists with a bomb - to travel to the ruined castle in Norway to intercept the returning capsule, and its single passenger. . .the conqueror worm.
My favorite Hellboy Volume I have always loved Mike Mignola's art, but this volume of Hellboy is the ultimate in the collection in my eyes, with its culmination of such magnificent art and intriguingly frightening storytelling.
Awesome purchase This book is BY FAR my favorite of the series. Great purchase for any fan or newcomer to the series. Any one of these can be picked up and read on their own.
Graphic SF Reader An excellent atmospheric Hellboy romp, as usual. For a concept or even character design when you first see it, somehow it works. It looks ridiculous, sounds like it would be silly, but it is not. Hellboy is exactly the kind of guy you would love to buy a beer for (hopefully out of range of any monsters). Mignola's style just fits.
Good stuff This is comics as it was meant to be. Great art, exciting story, interesting characters and nice scenery (buildings and places). This is good stuff. - Mike Mignola, give us another four part mini series, it's been far to long since we got one.
Dark and Light Love the H.P. Lovecraft gothic horror influences, the sarcastic humor, and the art...FANTASTIC!
