Still in the grips of a fever-induced hallucination, Hellboy (aka the Scarlet Crab), his dog Mac, and a friend straight out of pulp legend find themselves in the strange laboratory of Castle Death. While Hellboy is lost in his fantasy, the Brotherhood's assassin finally closes in!
The second Young Hellboy series reaches its exciting conclusion! From Hellboy creator Mike Mignola and cowriter Tom Sniegoski, with art by Craig Rousseau and colors by Chris O'Halloran.
Rosseau deliver some beautiful art in the issue. I love the visual style of the series and how visually thrilling and dynamic the imagery within it is. Read Full Review

So I'm going to finish all the series we're in the middle of, like "Hellboy in Love and "Koshchei in Hell. By April, everything should be wrapped up, and going forward I plan to write reviews for each story arc as the last issue comes out. My hope is that this new approach will let me write more thoughtful, less reactionary reviews. Of course, there are other reviewers on Multiversity Comics that would like to review Mignola's books, so I don't think reviews of single issues will entirely vanish either. At the very least there will always be one review for every story arc. Read Full Review
