Hellboy: Strange Places (Hellboy): Strange Places v. 6 (Hellboy (Dark Horse)) 
Clasificación de Clientes: - Fills a gap.... Mike Mignola s latest Hellboy effort picks up with what happened after Hellboy left the B.P.R.D and his journey to Africa. Features plenty of Lovecraftian underwater monstrosities and some stroppy fairy types!
Certainly not the best in the Hellboy series but a welcome return for my favourite red guy. Plus it reveals a few more secrets about his origins and purpose in the Third Wish. It also contains the island and some previously unpublished sketches and artwork. A must for Hellboy fans and collectors.
- Simply the best. Mike Mignola is quite simply the best comic book artist out there. When you sit there and marvel at the sheer simplicity of his illustrations you can truly appreciate what a master of the craft he is. After all the key to comic book art is to be able to convey what is happening at a glance, this allows each cell to seemlessley flow into the next. But when you do start to muse over each picture you notice just how clever his style is. The simple rule is that what s in shadow is black and what isn t in shadow isn t black!
As for this book it is yet another sneeky peek into Hellboy s mysterious origins and even more interestingly the origins of the Ogdru Jahad. But of course like all of the other books Mignola manages to ask more questions than he answers! But hey isn t that why we love Hellboy!
