Young Hellboy: Assault on Castle Death by Mike Mignola, Craig Rousseau (Illustrator), Dave Stewart (Illustrator), Clem Robins (Illustrator), Tom Sniegoski

This second collection is just as fun as the first one. Hellboy is coming down with a fever while settling into his new home. In his fevered state Lobster Johnson appears to him and asks for his help on a mission. Hellboy jumps at the chance to help his hero but while this is happening there is someone planning on murdering the child to prevent the end of the world. The story is good and has a strong ending. And the details work great so you can see how Hellboy would see how things happen as he is in a fevered delusional state.
