Hellboy is bigger and better this summer — both in theatres and on your bookshelf.
With just over a month to go until the release of the highly anticipated, Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, Dark Horse Books hits stores with a beautiful new volume of the first two Hellboy stories in an over-sized, hardcover library edition.
This first volume collects creator Mike Mignola’s first miniseries, 1994’s Seed Of Destruction (on which a good portion of the first Hellboy film was based), and the follow-up six-parter, Wake The Devil, along with scads of supplemental material, like sketches, character designs and an intro by comic writing icon Alan Moore.
Similar in design to the Art Of Hellboy and the breathtaking Sin City Library editions and featuring exceptional quality art reproductions, this volume, and its successive brethren, is one you’ll want on your shelves for years to come.
