Batman and Hellboy



Mike Mignola has really done a great job of exercising quality control with Hellboy, whether it be in comics, movies or animation. He has managed to get his creator-owned character out there in a variety of formats, always maintaining a high standard of quality and fidelity.

The comics speak for themselves, scary, funny, gothic action packed mysteries filled with innovative concepts and characters. While the film versions changed a few elements, they got the look perfectly and were a lot of fun. I hope that Guillermo Del Toro completes the trilogy. The two animated movies (featuring the cast of the films on vocal chores) are very well done, I highly recommend them.

Probably the only issue of the original B&TB I was never crazy about. It felt like it should've been a team-up with Phantom Stranger rather than Sgt. Rock Either with Rock guest-starring in the former's mag or vice-versa.
