"Hellboy, Volume 4: The Right Hand of Doom" is another great Hellboy collection, telling a handful of effective tales ranging from the apocalyptic to the hilarious (I'm mainly thinking of the two-page "Pancakes" as an example of the latter). As well as the terrific stories, Mike Mignola's art continues to be a wonder, inexplicably combining in a perfectly successful manner scary realism with a kind... more

"Hellboy, Volume 6: Strange Places" collects two past Hellboy mini-series: "The Third Wish" and "The Island", and they're both great reads. The former is pretty much a traditional Hellboy story, as Hellboy gets mixed up with some creepy mermaids and the curses eventually placed on them; and the latter is more of an epic history (but still creepy) of the Hellboy world rather than a specific horror... more

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

"Hellboy, Volume 7: The Troll Witch and Others" features a variety of tales: some short, some long, some new, some previously published, some pretty straight-forward, some open to interpretation... but all fascinating and fun. A new wrinkle this time is the use of guest artists P. Craig Russell and Richard Corben, who each draw a story. Both deliver the quirks and weirdness you expect, and both are... more

| 5. 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

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

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
Publisher: Dark Horse
August 04, 2004
Hollow Earth is a wonderful story. First of all the characters are so alive. Complex emotions. I keep coming back to scenes and not get bored. Even tough, it lacks the charismatic character of Hellboy is not there. Abraham is an reluctant leader and the enigmatic Roger and the awkward and puzzling Johannes, makes up for the Hellboy's power play. I was introduced to BPRD from Hellboy movie so, was a... more

November 04, 2009
I have actually been avoiding these BPRD books for a while now, because initially I had been turned off by the lack of Mignola art. I also remember looking through one of the books and not caring for Guy Davis' style. I recently flipped through a BPRD book at a Borders, though, and realized that I've been depriving myself of something I'd actually really enjoy.
I like this book quite a... more
