Hellboy bursts onto the film noir monster detective scene. From his apocalyptic origin in WWII England to the modern-day case of the sole survivor of a doomed Arctic expedition, Hellboy must battle vampire frog creatures and worse in his debut miniseries. Created by Mike Mignola, with script by John Byrne, and colors by Mark Chiarello. Hellboy -- World's Greatest Paranormal Investigator. Also featuring chapter one in the astounding origin of Monkeyman and O'Brien, the most dynamic duo since a talking scientific genius (who also happens to be an ape) and a beautiful, super-strong blonde (who also happens to be a scientist) teamed up to battle extra-dimensional menaces while looking for a way to return Monkeyman to his home dimension!
