Travel from the Appalachian mountains to Russia, France, and all the way back to Savannah, Georgia as Hellboy returns to take on phantoms, demons, and reanimated foes.

Collected in one volume for the first time, revisit some of the most beloved Hellboy short stories, including The Return of Effie Kolb, Long Night at Goloski Station, The Seven Wives Club, Her Fatal Hour and The Sending.
 
Dive into these harrowing adventures with Hellboy creator Mike Mignola as he's joined by artists Zach Howard, Matt Smith, Tiernen Trevallion, and Adam Hughes, along with colorist Dave Stewart, for a stellar fright fest!
 
“Though only a two-parter, Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: The Return of Effie Kolb is already on track to become another instant classic with its first issue.”—Nicholas Osborne, Comic-Watch (about The Return of Effie Kolb)
 
“‘Her Fatal Hour’ is delightfully silly, yet without undermining the seriousness of its stakes or breaking the mood.”—Mark Tweedale, Multiversity Comics (about Her Fatal Hour)
 
“ If you’re familiar with Smith’s work, it’ll come as no surprise that he knows how to compose an action sequence. There’s parallel action in this story, and thanks to Smith’s composition and Dave Stewart’s colors, it’s an effortless read.”—Mark Tweedale, Multiversity Comics (about Long Night at Goloski Station)
Mike Mignola's fascination with ghosts and monsters began at an early age; reading Dracula at age twelve introduced him to Victorian literature and folklore, from which he has never recovered. Starting in 1982 as a bad inker for Marvel Comics, he swiftly evolved into a not-so-bad artist. By the late 1980s, he had begun to develop his own unique graphic style, with mainstream projects like Cosmic Odyssey and Batman: Gotham by Gaslight. In 1994, he published the first Hellboy series through Dark Horse. There are thirteen Hellboy graphic novels (with more on the way), several spin-off titles (B.P.R.D., Lobster Johnson, Abe Sapien, and Sir Edward Grey: Witchfinder), prose books, animated films, and two live-action films starring Ron Perlman. Along the way he worked on Francis Ford Coppola's film Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), was a production designer for Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001), and was the visual consultant to director Guillermo del Toro on Blade II (2002), Hellboy (2004), and Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008). Mike's books have earned numerous awards and are published in a great many countries. Mike lives in Southern California with his wife, daughter, and cat. View titles by Mike Mignola
