Hellboy is a success story for its creator Mike Mignola, who created the character in 1993. Unlike the creator of Batman Bob Kane, Mike didn't have to wait 50 years to see his creation done justice on the big screen. The Hellboy film in 2004 was a big hit and Hellboy 2 is released this summer! The new film focuses on the fantasy side of Hellboy, so I did a bit of research I bought Hellboy the Chained Coffin and Others graphic novel.
Its a nice collection of short stories with Hellboy investigating cases involving shape changing goblins and other unearthly creatures, based on irish and other fantasy stories, all done in Mignolas unmistakable style that no others can match!
