Hellboy

Hellboy's 2010 debut from Cross Cult collects the early adventures of the world's greatest paranormal investigator, a demonic hero raised by humans to fight dark forces. Written and drawn by Mike Mignola, this series established the character's signature gothic horror-meets-pulp adventure tone, blending folklore, Lovecraftian monsters, and World War II-era occult conspiracies. Though slim at a single issue, it marks the German-language publisher's entry point for Mignola's sprawling Hellboy mythos, introducing readers to the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense and its red-skinned, stone-fisted protagonist.
