Hellboy and Ragman
I am always happy to include an all-Mike Mignola cover on the blog. He is such a master of light and shadow that his work looks equally gorgeous in black and white as it does in full color. I like his take on Ragman - Joe Kubert's offbeat costume design for the character is one of my favorites and Mignola gives it just the right noirish appearance.

Great work!
Did anyone ever read the Batman/Starman/Hellboy series?
When the HECK did Mignola do Ragman??? No way could i have missed this on the racks! Next to Jim Aparo, he is my favorite artist.

I'm surprised you've never paired these guys, before. Bravo!
This IS a great team-up. I'm probably the only person alive who prefers the original non super-powered version of Ragman to the mystical version....
And, yes, FreeLiverFree, I read the Batman/Starman/Hellboy series a long time ago although i don't remember that much about it.
Cool cover. The mighty RAGMAN is always a welcome site. It would be great to see RAGMAN vs The TATTERDEMALION. A slugfest in the sewers!
@Sonofjack Well: No, you aren't alone. There are at least two of us.
I don't know anything about a super powered Ragman, but the original was great! So there might be three of us.
@Anonymous: During the height of popularity, for DC's Vertigo imprint, Ragman went from being a blue-collar Batman to a supernatural avenger of evil. A sort of mystical version of Marvel's Cloak (of "...and Dagger" fame).
