One of the many real delights in stories about Hellboy is how he reacts when faced with his dark destiny.
Can he change his future? Do the whispers in the shadows truly reveal the end of the world? Can a creature like Hellboy fight fate, or is he doomed to follow the path laid out before him?
That's the powerful story Mike Mignola is unfolding before us, and it's one not to be missed.
And if Mignola only has time to draw the covers, we can be thankful that the interiors are in the skilled hands of Duncan Fegredo, whose style complements Mignola's while offering his own dark, detailed and powerful visions.
And that splash panel on page 12? Just amazing.
Here Mignola draws Hellboy into one of England's most potent mythologies (and my personal favorite), and there's no telling where the story goes from here.
Isn't that great?
Highly, highly recommended!
