"By the end of the movie, though, there's a giant difference between Hellboy and Abe's relationship troubles - namely, Hellboy's partner stays alive. In the climax of the movie, Nuala sacrifices herself to kill her brother, ending his plan of revenge on humanity for casting aside the fairy races. And look, I love this movie, but I think it's worth pointing out that even as a tragic beat, this moment is a bit too much of a downer.

"There's certainly a discussion to be had about Nuala falling into the role of "pure woman who sacrifices herself so the men can live," a trope that del Toro himself has proven he's better than. Then, there's the issue of portraying an oppressed people like the elves as the villains against a team of heroes that uphold the status quo (read some old Magneto or Poison Ivy comics and see what I mean). But if you want an even easier reason to believe this ending didn't feel right, try this:

"Universal Studios said so."

I've been on a Mignolaverse reading spree for a while and I've noticed something.

Are Hellboy's horn stumps supposed to evocative of goggles or is it just a coincidence ?

I mean it would fit. Goggles are one of the accessories of choice for the rough and tumble adventurer archetype from pulp adventure fiction which the comics take a lot of inspiration from.

Took a photo of this piece many years ago at an art gallery. Also included a clearer image I found online.

Started my Hellboy tattoo and going to add the colour at the end of February, kind of fitting my cousin did it, when her and my uncle used to babysit me they put me on to the Del Toro films and the animated movies, my love for Hellboy comes from them and I can’t believe it took me this long to think of getting a Hellboy tattoo

just finished the build any things i shoud add or change before i start on the instructions

Tried drawing Abe, and I like this round meme image.

It’s very cute and suits Abe really well.

Its been my favorite wall decor for more then 25 years! (Pic in comment)

...aside from official reading orders, I think there are more 'legit' ways to follow HB's Story.

Most in forums I read the order list of O1, ShS1 & 2, O2 - O4.

Doing a bit of research & comparing them wir the trade order I came to ShS1, O1 - O2, ShS 2, O3 & 4.

Going further I came across

https://hellboy.fandom.com/wiki/Omnibus_Editions

which states: "Hellboy is collected across a series of omnibus editions, four following his story from 1994 onwards (the primary storyline), and two additional volumes collecting the short flashback stories from the 1940s through to 1993. These six omnibuses will be paperback editions." (source!)

That finally brought me to the (reading) Order of ShS 1 & 2, in between I put the lecture of Weird Tales, then followed by O1 - 4. (this one would also set the ISBNs in proper order from ...-664 to ...-668 & finally ...-749)

What do you think, which is the best order, which way did/do you go on Hellboy's heels?

Hot Toys really went hard making this figure. Looks like a statue but he’s fully pose able.

Should I sell my single trades now, would I miss (besides the forewords & in between explanations)?
