A town overrun by ghosts would be enough of a problem, but Hellboy has an even bigger problem on his hands when a fellow B.P.R.D. agent disappears amongst the paranormal chaos.
Campbell creates some beautifully detailed and stylish art throughout the issue. I love the visual style of this issue a lot. Read Full Review
Hellboy and BRPD: Ghost Ships of Labrador #1 does almost everything right and hits all the right notes. The problem is that it ends too soon, without giving the reader enough meat to chew on. Read Full Review
The Ghost Ships of Labrador presents a slow burn, cozy ghost story that enriches the larger Hellboy universe with its workaday attitude. Read Full Review
HELLBOY AND THE B.P.R.D.: THE GHOST SHIPS OF LABRADOR #1 asks a lot: attention, patience, and a taste for spectral brawls where plot and art jostle for dominance. The result? A comic that pushes novelty where it matters. Agatha Blunt is the real draw, but the issue can't fully escape its own atmospheric fog. If your comic budget is tight, weigh Agatha's star turn and brisk ghost chaos against a premise that's promising, if not always crystal-clear about where it's headed. Read Full Review
Plot
It's 1990 in Red Bay Labrador, a town whose bay has been visited by hundreds of ships for centuries, many of which have been wrecked. This place is notable for Whale Bay.
Mysteriously, the town's population is haunted by an army of sailors' ghosts from all those wrecked ships, who are driving everyone away because they want to claim this place as their home, something that, according to Hellboy's experience, never happens.
The B.P.R.D. sends Agatha Blunt to investigate. Her specialty is exorcisms. She arrives at the town, which is shrouded in a thick fog, accompanied by her pet dog, Elba. Agatha uses a wheelchair and disappears in seconds as she enters the fog.
