About the Author

Mike Mignola was born September 16, 1960 in Berkeley, California and grew up in nearby Oakland. His fascination with ghosts and monsters began at an early age and reading Dracula at age 13 introduced him to Victorian literature and folklore from which he has never recovered. In 1993 Mike moved to Dark Horse comics and created Hellboy, a half-demon occult detective who may or may not be the Beast of the Apocalypse. While the first story line Seed of Destruction, was co-written by John Byrne, Mike has continued writing the series himself. There are, at this moment, numerous Hellboy graphic novel collections with more on the way, several spin-off titles (BPRD, Lobster Johnson, Abe Sapien and Witchfinder), three anthologies of prose stories, several novels, two animated films, and two live action films staring Ron Perlman. Hellboy has earned numerous comic industry awards and is published in a great many countries. The author lives in Los Angeles, CA.

An excellent addition to the Hellboy universe, it examines more of the professors part in the bprd and the sort of burden he must carry while taking care of supernatural obstacles, if you want more of the Hellboy universe or even as a jumping off point, I recommend.

Very gorgeous book. Inside and outside, absolutely loved this book, one of my favorites.
You don't need Hellboy to write a great a dark paranormal book.

They explore Vampires and Witches in this book, and it's a much better value to buy this instead of three separate trades.

The art is on point and so is the storytelling.

You do not need to know Hellboy or any other BPRD stuff to enjoy this book,it's stand alone.

I'm a huge fan of Hellboy and bprd but I returned this book because the jacket was torn and the book was dented.
I wish greater care is taken while shipping books out.

Esse encadernado é tão bonito que você vai querer manusear ele de luva para não engordurar as páginas. As histórias são todas muito boas e envolventes, acompanhamos as aventuras do jovem Trevor pesquisando sobre o oculto nos primeiros anos do Bureau numa Alemanha pós guerra, cheia de segredos e ocupada por exércitos rivais.
