Long months in the making, promised after the events of The Storm and The Fury, Hellboy is back, with Mike Mignola scripting AND drawing. For Hellboy fans, this is the comic we’ve waited for all year, and a story that is long in coming (how can Hellboy NOT go to Hell at some point?) As for the story…Mike offers a tight paragraph on what’s gone before, and we go from there, though with Mike, there are small references to earlier stories that can be missed, and the writing was a tad confusing at time…a little too much weight on the reader’s shoulders, as it were. Still, it’s an action-packed opening shot, as Dark Horse pushes it’s “Horror” comics, cashing in on the Zombie craze. Hellboy, to me, is Lovecraft mixed with the movie Fido, a light-hearted superhero who combats the all-too-serious supernatural. Give it a shot, especially with the rumored Mayan Apocalypse coming. This fits right in.
