Abe Sapien #4

Spinning out of the pages of Hellboy, this 2014 Dark Horse collection finds Abe Sapien at a genuinely unsettling crossroads, as suggested by Mike Mignola's brooding cover — a gaunt, skull-like figure looming overhead while Abe himself stands wreathed in pale flowers, his luminous blue eyes the only warmth against an oppressive black void. The title, *The Shape of Things to Come*, carries real weight here, hinting at transformation and dread in equal measure. With interior art by Max Fiumara and colors by Dave Stewart bringing that signature dark-mythic atmosphere to life, this is the kind of Hellboy-universe storytelling that lingers with you.
