I skipped book 3 because I couldn't wait for book 3 to arrive in at the library. This turned out to be ok since it was a collection of short bits from other books and promo items. Really enjoyed it and of course grabbed the next one to read.
Hellboy and his universe really is the perfect expression for Mignola's artwork, and I am very glad that he found the right creative venue to express himself- his work on other graphic novels really was unsatisfying, but with the Hellboy setting he really does settle in and make it hum with a dark and broody jazzy snappy gothic orchestra.
I read everything the local library had and really enjoyed it. The only non Hellboy work of his I have seen is the book he did with Jim Butcher, Backup.
