While Hellboy's robotic counterpart battles giant monsters on a faraway island, the scientists running the mission scramble when things at the lab get more than a little out of hand. Inspired by Mignola's viral-hit pencil drawings from Mike Mignola: The Quarantine Sketchbook, Giant Robot Hellboy gets his own story in this 3-part miniseries from Mignola and longtime Hellboy artist Duncan Fegredo!

    Giant Robot Hellboy is a ton of fun, but it's also so much more than that. It delivers more colossal cage matches than you'd dare hope, while slowly teasing out themes and connections to a much bigger story. Read Full Review

    Giant Robot Hellboy #2 is a comic of immense weight and scale, but without a clear direction or objective it often finds itself shambling forward without consequence and propped purely on the talent of its byline. Read Full Review

    Hellboy learns to use this robot, but he finds himself at a numerical disadvantage and his artillery is not infinite.

    Exciting penultimate installment of an addictive saga.

    Mignola continues to surprise with this Hellboy story where he not only makes references to the kaiju and mecha genre, but also involves a theme of cosmic horror.

    Duncan Fregedo creates the perfect atmosphere of terror, mystery and action for this story that places Hellboy in a complex situation and leaves him in a vulnerable state, raising the tone of mysteries with his art so organic and detailed.

    I’m going to be honest as I had to take a little bit of the score as it left me annoyed that there wasn’t more. This is exactly why comics are so awesome and no mistake. Just sheer fun and long may this team continue. Script 10 , writing 10 , art 10 and minus .5 for needing another issue now. So looking forward to the final installment.
