Yet another Twilight-Zone-like Hellboy story.

Coming out of the mist in the remote parts of Russia, Hellboy comes across the derelict train station. Sitting in front of it is an old man and for some reason he seems like he was expecting Hellboy, Talk between them starts like something out of the Reservoir Dogs, hints and then even more hints about the two of them. Suddenly three strangers appear but they are definitely more than they seem to be and they seem to be at the station for a very specific task.

Story is what one might call yet-another-day-or-night-of-daemon-slayer. New and interesting part s story of the old man who proves to be an unexpected and very capable ally.

Art is great, very dream-like. You are constantly expecting for story to end as one of the Hellboy's nightmares.

Recommended to all fans of Hellboy.… (plus d'informations)

It's a coming-of-age quest in a sinister storybook fantasy world. References to The Lord of the Rings, On the Road, the works of Edgar Allan Poe, and the tale of Hansel and Gretel get hashed up into a fairly standard hero's journey. It reminded me of Vertigo's Fables and The Unwritten. I liked the characters and the way the plot unfurled.

It's an enticing opening chapter, especially given the set-up at the end, but three years later I don't see any info that a continuation is coming anytime soon or at all.… (plus d'informations)

A wonderful set of graphic novels full of some really weird stories. All the books are amazing. But, my personal favorite would be Hellboy Universe Essentials: Witchfinder. The stories are so creepy and full of horror. Also, the graphics are amazing with some very different characters. Although, we don't see hellboy's character as one of the main in all the books. But, still the books are enjoyable and best for horror lovers. The Witchfinder is superb.

I would like to give the book 5 stars. Thanks to Edelweiss and Dark Horse Books for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book.… (plus d'informations)
