Description
The book that inspired the motion picture. From the introduction by Robert Bloch: ¿`Hellboy¿ is a brilliant example of how to elevate the comic of the future to a higher literary level while achieving a higher pitch of excitement. Its story line combines traditional concepts with modern frames of reference, the whole being swept along by a virtuoso treatment of dazzling artistic effect. . . This is far from the `pop art¿ of the Andy Warhol world or the inane imagery of the drug culture. The creative approach found in `Hellboy¿ is a newly evolving art form of its own, addressed & attuned to today.¿
