Frankenstein and the young Lilja navigate the world above ground to follow Lilja’s vision, but an ancient and familiar evil follows them wherever they go.

The world above appears transformed, but old evil is hiding behind a new mask.

In the follow-up to Hellboy and B.P.R.D., Frankenstein and young Lilja travel across the transformed world to follow a prophetic vision. Along the way, they befriend mysterious people and fight monstrous creatures, all while navigating the metamorphosized natural world above. But the path set by her vision is not clear and easy, and there will be both legendary enemies from Hellboy’s history and new horrifying foes that will try to stop them.

Mike Mignola, Christopher Golden, Tom Sniegoski, and Peter Bergting return to the New World that Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. gave their lives to save.

Collects Frankenstein: New World – The Sea of Forever #1–#4 with sketchbook material.
Praise for Frankenstein: New World:

“Frankenstein: New World #1 is both quintessentially a Hellboy Universe book, and yet like nothing else we've seen before in the Hellboy Universe before. Bergting's art truly transports us into a new world, while embellishing it with compositions and pacing that tap into a Mignola-esque mood.”—Multiversity

“There aren't many misses in the pantheon of Hellboy comics, but Frankenstein: New World seems poised to become the best story since B.P.R.D.: The Devil You Know concluded.”—ComicBook.com
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
Christopher Golden is the New York Times bestselling author of such novels as Snowblind, Tin Men, The Myth Hunters, Wildwood Road, The Boys Are Back in Town, The Ferryman, Strangewood, and Of Saints and Shadows.

Golden cowrote the illustrated novel Baltimore, or, The Steadfast Tin Soldier and the Vampire with Mike Mignola, which became the launching pad for the cult favorite comics series Baltimore. As an editor, he has worked on the short story anthologies Seize the Night, The New Dead, and The Monster's Corner, among others, and has also written and cowritten comic books, video games, screenplays, a BBC radio play, the online animated series Ghosts of Albion (with Amber Benson), and a network television pilot.
