In this volume something lurks in Pacific Northwest and epidemic of ghost-towns spreads out.

BPRD sends Abe Sapien to investigate where are all those people and very soon he finds somebody he never expected to see again living in the very wild and hunting the same monster creature.

Again do note this is slow-burner. You wont see any fast paced actin until the very end, majority of story is investigation and exposition of inter-team behavior (Panya seems to be rather naughty old lady). I have to say it I enjoy this pace, makes BPRD look like real investigation agency tracking creatures from the other world in the vast world of ours.

All in all very interesting set of stories. Since I am reading these out of the proper order (or how I like to say I read it as soon I find it :)) some things I leave be and hope they will be explained later through earlier stories. But overall it was not difficult to follow story thread in this volume.

Recommended to all fans of creepy horror and Hellboy universe. ( )

This one was OK but lacked the humor of the Hellboy comics. I like the artwork and the story but not enough to continue with the series. Too serious and too many tentacles. ( )

I've seen reviews of Hellboy and other graphic novels, so I thought I'd give this a try. I read about 10 or so pages and it was not worth the time. The pictures were sometimes interesting, but the story was disjointed and uninspired. Couldn't hold my interest for long at all. Another indicator of the decline of Western civilization. ( )
