If you’ve been following our reviews of “Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: 1956,” you’ll know this miniseries is somewhat of a departure from the usual, beyond even the obvious three artists on a single book. The switching styles give ‘1956’ a distinctly different rhythm, which is proving a fascinating way of exploring various facets of the occult cold war and its players. In this exclusive preview of ‘1956’ #3, it seems we’ll see some connection to the “B.P.R.D.” series too. Look for “Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: 1956” #3 on shelves next week, Wednesday 23.

“Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: 1956” #3 comes out Wednesday, January 23. Check out our exclusive preview below.
