This is the first of a three part miniseries featuring our favorite demonic hero, Hellboy. If you are a fan of the character this is a great way to get ramped up for the movie coming out in a few weeks here. Like most mini series our hero is more of an observer here being drawn into the supernatural crisis of others. The art is cool and really portrays the demonic nature of the characters wells. The crooked man is especially creepy and it looks like things will really ramp up in the next two issues. The issue reads really well in that the characters truly come alive as you read the dialogue. Mike Mignola really does a good job of connecting you with the character and making them real. This isnât a must read but itâs a great way to get ready for the Hellboy mania that is yet to come this summer or for a new reader to explore the character.
