Eisner and Harvey Award-winning cartoonist Mike Mignola releases his fourth Hellboy collection. Stories formerly available only in black and white are presented here in color for the first time. A new story, “King Volmer,” is printed here for the first time. On top of all this, Mignola shares his sketchbooks for the first time, showing readers the genesis of his personal take on the lords of Hell and other creatures.

Dark Horse presents new editions of the entire Hellboy line with new covers, beginning with Seed of Destruction, the basis of director Guillermo del Toro's film. Hellboy is one of the most celebrated comics series in recent years. The ultimate artists' artist and a great storyteller whose work is in turns haunting, hilarious, and spellbinding, Mike Mignola has won numerous awards in the comics industry and beyond. When strangeness threatens to engulf the world, a strange man will come to save it. Sent to investigate a mystery with supernatural overtones, Hellboy discovers the secrets of his own origins, and his link to the Nazi occultists who promised Hitler a final solution in the form of a demonic avatar.

"The best horror comic in a generation. This Mignola guy is a wizard"—Frank Miller
