Interesting. It MIGHT be more of a 3.5,im not sure. Some of the earlier narrative stuff lost me on who was speaking. It's an interesting idea though and I'll follow up with the second volume.
In a couple of hours, I'd burned through this volume; it'd that good. The art, the story--it's just... Fantastic. Undoubtedly getting the follow up volumes and of course going to be looking up MONSTER when the new printing comes out.
Actually pretty goods didn't really it was all connected to WITCHBLADE either. Will definitely read more.
Really enjoyed this actually. Art was great and it was a great modern re-telling of the beginnings of Thor. If you're not sure who Thor started out as, check this out. Add of course read the original stuff too. Just to compare.
Finally got to read this and, admittedly, I'm intrigued. The art was hit or miss, but progressively got better and the writing was interesting. Will definitely have to follow up eventually.
Fiumara and Harren steal the show, hands down. Great art, and the stories were cool. Especially Abyss of Time.
More fantastic work from the 1940s Era of BPRD series. People complaining it's thrown together or characters aren't developed must have been watching TV and trying to read this at the same time. There's something in the works here. More Anders, more about these monster's origins and the Prof, but it'll come in the next volume. Mignola never disappoints.
Reads even better in trade. The art is great, the story is unique and original and man that cover just jumps at you and screams "pick me up!". Definitely recommend this.
One of the best Hellboy stories of all time. More on my review here: http://mignolaverse.co/post/82260550123/review-the-bones-of-giants
Well that took a surprising turn towards the end. Didn't except a lot of the deaths, actually. Count me in for the second book.
Just a fantastic collection. The first half is really good, but the back half is just amazing. Harren goes all out for one of the best monster battles in comics, ever. Definitely recommend it even if you aren't caught up to this point, just to see his art.
A-mazing. Crook just kills it and the whole thing is creepy and wonderful. Love more Johann "screen time".
