So I just read Hellboy: Bride Of Hell, it was great.Richard Corben's art is a little weird to me, but I enjoy it. The story was little sad, though. I felt a bit bad for Asmodeus and the girl. Then I read the next Hellboy story, the third part of this big ol' Hellboy storyline is gonna be split up into two parts. The Storm (3 issues) in July 2010 and The Fury (3 issues) in April 2011.FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=26520So a new article giving some more tantalizing details about Hell on Earth is up... wow! New agents! Evil Abe! Liz gone! Big plans!
And a special guest appearance by Alan Moore.
bumpu~
>>71613 is that a ring of the house of the fly on Alan Moore's finger?
Anyone else see the 8-page preview for the next Hellboy comic? They have finally tied HB back to the BPRD and the real world. I won't be too surprised if he eventually crosses paths with Liz one of these days.
>>76842apparently there is a crossover in the works after Fury
>>76843Whaaaat, source?
I don't know, I just can't get myself to like these one-shots or miniseries. At least not those directly relating to current BPRD members. It's just so jarring to see them removed from their current context... Though he biggest problem for me is that I prefer the longer stories and more stretched out timeline of the main series. Bitching aside, Abyssal Plain wasn't too bad, though the art (Abe's face especially) got weird sometimes. I really enjoyed the appearance of Varvara! And I'm a little curious to see if the small artifact the sailor got from his friend (a depiction of Dagon) has any greater significance or was just a little cameo.
>>76843...you mean that one with Beasts of Burden?
Cover for #3 of upcoming Hell on Earth series...
..and #4! This is gonna be awesome.SO AWESOME.
>>79851Oh fuck yes.OH FUCK YES
This issue was amazing. I'll miss Fegredo so, so much.
>>79851FUCKYESSSSSSSSS
Baltimore and Hellboy: The Storm came out att he same time...I full-joy'd.
I reread Lobster Johnson today, and one of the Lobster's friends mentioned this trashy magazine he read, that said the Atlanteans used their technology to go to space.So maybe the aliens in Conqueror Worm were Atlanteans and that block they gave Hellboy was some sort of vril? It was more green than the suit's blue rays/fire, but kinda close in effect I thought. Plus, if it was real vril, the colors would've probably been different than synthesized vril. Plus, wasn't vril used to create? I imagine that may be why the worm, a force of destruction, would hate it so.That magazine was probably just the 30s version of weekly world news, though. But still, nothing seems to be a throw-away comment the more you read it, don't you find? Even though it's a bit of a reach I just wanted to share my little conspiracy theory.
>>80693..wow, I never would have caught that myself. That makes a lot of sense, actually. Still wondering a little if the similarities between "future Abe" or whatever was in the pic Liz found and these aliens are a coincidence or not!
...lots of titles, there...This was a great issue. So ominous. A little sad that Devon is becoming somewhat of a douche...
>>80796D'aaaaaaaw
>>82407Can hardly blame him though.Also, YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
The Storm.Oh fuck.
>>88917Oh my god, I teared up... it won't turn out how HB said it would, but if it did, that would be so nice.Don't read this spoiler page until you're finished reading the comic.
Alright, I just finished it. I cannot comment on it right now, except...FUCK.
FINALLY! They're tying in the Ogdru-Jahad and all that stuff from the beginning today, I am so down for The Fury!
>>89247I was getting so confused by the idea of two different apocalypses happening at once... I always felt like it might end up this way. But it still blew my mind. And the page with all of the previous "servants"... wow.I guess this explains why there were some frog people (I think) among her army.Also: Gruagach has my complete sympathy now. ;__;
RE: New World #2...Those two are the best of bros. I always felt they could be, it was hinted at occasionally, and now they are.
>>91252... I really hope you're talking about Abe and Daimio. Because they should be bros, like since Garden of Souls. Brb, dling.
Man, I loved Johann's body language in this. Kate, Panya and Johann's quibbling. And the return of the cigars! Can't wait for the next issue.
>>91415Cigars must be a symbol of male bonding in the Mignolaverse. Abe and Daimio have shared them on multiple occasions, and one can only assume he shared them with HB too. Since HB left, Abe hasn't really had anyone he could pal around with like him. I can't help but feel like Abe's replacing his lost "manly companionship" with Daimio, who really does fit the bill nicely.And I genuinely meant the above paragraph in a completely nonsexual way.
>>91565I - I hadn't interpreted it as such until you said that.
Chowder?
I wish I knew what was happening in this.
>>91572Oh, I did. Thanks for the smirk, >>91565
Bump for Mike Mignola's birthday.
>>92997Hmm. Maybe I'll rewatch that pilot of The Amazing Screw-On Head they did for the SciFi network.
>>92997
So the cover for the last issue of New World is up. And um.Oh god, he'd better not die just after being reintroduced..!
>>93579NUOOOOOOOOOO
