I'm a tradewaiter, but I bought my first floppy today. The Mignola cover was too pretty to pass up. So I'm going to storytime it! Presenting Hellboy and the BPRD 1953: The Witch Tree & Rawhead and Bloody Bones

>>77713411
>>77713426
And that's it. Young Hellboy stories are comfy af
>>77713447
Another lettercol. Anyone /mignolaverse/ ever write in?
>>77713447
These are far too comfy.
>>77713477
I know right, passed out teen Hellboy is best
Thanks for posting four stories. They made my evening. Bravo, sir.
>>77713741
no problemo, just spreading the love for my favourite comics universe ever
actually I'm considering doing the other old British adventures as well. Any interest?
>>77713477
Hellboy is great
Thanks for this. I love the English Hellboy stories, especially when they go to places I know. I used to live near Avebury and see the stones quite often, and now I live in Boudicca's old territory.
Gotta love the short Hellboy stories. Probably my favorite comics.
>>77715786
I believe he once took a train past my city in one of the novels. That was pretty cool.
>>77713905
Sure, go for it.
>>77716552
>>77715786
Alrighty folks I`m back
Presenting that classic: The Corpse
>>77717516
Jenny Greenteeth!
>>77717545
And then Gruagach became a pig
>>77717650
Man I love this story so much, ae are great
>>77717668
*Fae
Iron Shoes time!
>>77717668
The Corpse might just be my favorite Hellboy story.
>>77717719
I love that panel with Iron Shoes flying out the window
>>77717749
Man I love this one
>>77717766
endcover
anyhow I got stuff to do but I'll come back to do more later if y'all keep it bumped. peace and hellboy
>baby grows up hot and gets fucked by Hellboy
>>77717813
Thanks
>>77717668
And then the baby hooked up with Hellboy.
>>77717857
Did they even have time to do anything besides kissing?
>>77717766
And you can watch The Iron Shoes.

>>77718417
neat, but I prefer Amazing Screw-On Head
I'm in a Hellboy mood now so if anybody wants to throw a Hellboy character at me, then I will draw a little sketch for you.
>>77718646
the unappreciated badass that is Sidney Leach!
>>77718646
Pig form Gruagach would fit the thread.
>>77718646
The Claw!
>>77718724
And here is Sidney.
>>77718737
>>77718791
And here's Gruagach and LJ.
These threads are the sole reason I come back to /co/. Love each and every one of you good people.
>>77718646
If the Anon is still here and willing. Could you draw Enos waving us goodbye. I really liked him.
>>77720464
It's not much but here you go.
>>77719307
Loving the grumpy Gruagach.
>>77717493
>You're big, but you're fast. FAST!
God, Mike Mignola is such a memester. Dropped.
>>77720684
It's enough. ;-; 'Bye, Enos. I miss you.Fuck you, Jo Ann.
Really looking forward to Rivera's Hellboy.
>>77711049
Young Hellboy's a bit more of a smartass I notice
>>77711078
How else could he have possibly transformed into the jaded asshole we know and love?
So friends, how is your evening? How about some more Hellboy to cheer you up?
>>77719014
>>77719307
>>77720684
These are great, anon. Did you also do pic related? Found it in a /mignolaverse/ thread ages ago
>>77719783
Love you too anon. Actually, I love everyone who kept this bumped while I was gone
>>77721302
Fuck that hurt. I was halfway making an Enos costume as well
Alright, I know this gets storytimed a hell of a lot around this season, but it's exactly a month 'til Christmas so I thought why not. Here's...
Hellboy: A Christmas Underground
>>77723903
That wasn't me, but I do like that one. but I have done these in another thread some time ago. Here they are. Sledgehammer is up first.
>>77724066
But I'll wait until you're done to post more.
>>77724092
>>77724066
>>77724089
Alright, thanks anon. I'll probably be done for the night soon
>>77724349
And there we have it
>>77724376
And since that ends on a sad note, here's Santa Hellboy with some holiday cheer
>>77724376
I don't think I've read a Hellboy comic that I didn't like. And here are buff Johann and other body Johann.
>>77710879
lmao, it wasn't even closed.
>>77724428
Part of Hellboy's family.
>>77724485
And here's Panya.
>>77724428
t b h, some of the Corben ones don't really work for me. and witchfinder vol 2
that is a nce set of swole johanns though
>>77722521
Shit, that's great news
In case that person from the shelf thread is around, yes, the Frankenstein spine is shit
They even changed the font. Seriously Dark Horse?
>>77711074
they certainly do
>>77724603
He will be doing 1953 1-3.
>>77710970
Goddamn Hellboy and his goddamn skeletons.
>>77711058
Ayy, Rawhead
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-Sn6O-Pb00
>>77724508
I'll agree that Witchfinder vol 2 probably lands pretty low on the list but I would probably not say that I didn't like it. I could blame this on saying Hellboy comic and not Mignolaverse but that seems like a cop-out. So I will rephrase. I have not read something with Hellboy in it that I didn't like.
Also, more Rivera.
>>77711074
I love how Hellboy never takes that spooky stuff for completely granted.
>>77724853
He's probably seen a few hoaxes in his days.
>>77725002
Have there been Hellboy stories where it was all a hoax in the end? I'd imagine that they had investigate a good number of those but the stories never tell about them. I think that would be an interesting change of pace.
>>77724507
No disrespect intended but she just looks like an old woman, not a resurrected Egyptian mummy.
If there's something I've missed and she actually now IS just an old woman, I apologise.
>>77725180
No offense taken. I might not have taken it far enough. But I do think that that she looks mostly like a really wrinkly old lady so that was what I pretty much went with. I did look at other people's take on her but in the end it might have been me not taking it far enough.
>>77724058
Is A Christmas Underground in any of the Library Editions?
>>77725162
Not that I can remember, but now I think there should be one.
>>77725313
It's in Library Edition Volume 2.
>>77725180
I take it you've never seen Ardath Bay, then?
>>77725373
nice. thanks anon
>>77725388
It's the only Library Edition I own, so I checked my actual physical copy.
>>77725310
Cool man, decent drawing, though!
>>77725387
I don't know who that is.....
>>77725533
so why are you sometimes vollsticks and sometimes vollstix? or is it multiple people?
>>77725481
i just ordered the first 3 volumes and don't really plan on getting the rest since there's no more mignola art. glad to know i got that story
>>77725533
Supposed to be Ardath Bey. Aka Boris Karloff from The Mummy.
>>77725574
I'm pretty sure more of his art shows up in other volumes but not that much of it. Volume 6 has the work he did in The Bride of Hell and Others from what I understand. And In the Chapel of Moloch should be in another volume. But If you are looking for Mignola only then yeah, I think you're good.
>>77725559
It's all me, just depends on how lazy I'm feeling. Since I (apparently) am such a huge hipster shitposter with an "effeminate" writing style (whatever THAT means), you should be able to recognise me whether it's sticks or stix, Anon.
>>77725623
Oh, okay. The old, good Mummy or the shitty Brendan Fraser efforts?! Thanks for the info, though, Anon.
>>77724691
He's inking himself, yeah?
>>77725759
It's the classic one from the 30's. I've been meaning to give those classic Hammer films a watch. I've only seen the Bela Lugosi Dracula one.
I believe I read that his father is inking him.
>>77725708
yeah i'm aware, i torrented the rest. not really worth it to shell out another 130 bucks just for a couple stories, fegredo is fine but i'm not a fan of corben's
>>77717531
Passing Bat helps the plot along by questioning Gruagach. Ever so helpful to the storytelling.
>>77725832
I recommend The Black Cat.
Boris Karloff is prettyhandsomein that one too.
>>77726004
I might give it a look. I believe I've seen a review of it some time ago. I should probably take care of Frankenstein, The Mummy, Wolf-Man and perhaps the Invislbe Man first. Maybe The Creature from the Black Lagoon.
>>77724189
That building looks suspiciously like Pandemonium again.
>>77724485
Hellboy's sister is a Draenei?
>>77726328
The horns do look alike.
>>77726385
Pretty close rather, but they don't seem to curl as much.
>>77726385
Mmm. Does she get lewd?
>>77726466
I guess this is the closest with the whole /ss/ vibe besides her laying on the ground later.
>>77726510
>>77726510
>>77726524
Yes, please.
Whenever there's a storytime of Midnight Circus there's always a few people waifu-ing over Gamori
>>77725759
eh, just ignore them. You can get a bit pretentious, but don't we all. I value your contributions to discussion regardless
>>77726524
Wait. Ain't dat hellboys sister?
>>77726524
damn, that Dave Stewart colouring. Really nice difference between the real world and the fantasy one. Reminded me of the two artstyles in BPRD 1947 (Ba and Moon are so wonderful)
>>77726654
It sure is.
>>77726774
That's . . . kinda hot.
>>77726656
He's one of the best in the business. If not the best.
>>77726385
>>77726510
>>77726524
The Draenei/Eredar pretty much are the demons of the Warcraft universe. Suppose there's only a certain number of ways you can draw smoking hot chicks with horns and hooves.
>>77726656
I think we can also attribute some of the effect to the washes and inks of Fegredo who is also really great. Probably my favorite Hellboy artist after Mignola.
>>77726510
>Hey bro, wanna /ss/? C'mon, Dad will never find out.
>>77726844
>C'mon dad is frozen in inamimate suspension.
>>77726868
Inanimate*
>>77726796
15 Eisners eh?
>>77711093
>why not just burn the sign
>>77711011
>why not just negotiate with the skeletons
1953 is shaping up to be a good year
Long storytime is really LONG. Thanks OP for this! Right on time for motivating this anon before going out for the day.
>>77727650
I love that Hellboy stories usually go for the easiest solution. Either that or just beating the crap out of it.
Is Hellboy one of the most likable protagonists ever created?
I want him to be my brother, dad, best friend or husband and would appreciate him all the same.
>>77728120
There's a reason it's said that you can cross him over with anything.
His character is very... universal is probably the wrong word, but his struggle is very applicable. In the end he is just simply a nice guy who is trying to carve out his own way in life while everyone else in the world seems to think they have to tell him what to do.
hellboy thread yee
>>77726466
Well eventually she getslesbian gang-raped by the Erinyesbut it is sadly off-screen
>>77729329
Is the implication at least sexy?
>>77729362
Only if you're really into that sort of thing like a /u/fag.
>>77729370I am.
While this is being posted, I want to let you guys know that these storytimes got me into Hellboy and have led me to buy every main Hellboy story, plus a few BRPD bits. Thanks a bunch.
>>77729390
The Erinyes look like weird bugs, though.
>144 Hellboy & BPRD 1953 Phantom Hand & Kelpie $3.50 Dark Horse 14,247
>235 BPRD Hell On Earth 136 $3.50 Dark Horse 6,868
>254 Abe Sapien 27 $3.50 Dark Horse 5,956
Considering how universally acclaimed Hellboy is, why are the sales numbers so low ;___; I know that a lot of the fanbase tradewaits, but it's still sad.
(Yes, I realize it's basically impossible to jump into BPRD/Abe right now without reading everything else. And Abe's writing isn't quite as good as everything else. But Hellboy should still be doing better.)
>>77711049
Zombies vs Zombies...that's way cooler than it has any right to be.
>>77713447
This is perfect for my hangover-plagued body and soul.
>>77718417
Sweet!
>>77726524
Can we get a full storytime of this?
>>77729855
Not him, but sure
>>77729870
my internet is a bit spotty at the moment, so bare with me.
>>77729873
>>77729879
>>77729884
>>77729890
Anybody here? What are you up to today?
>>77729895
>>77729899
>>77729908
>>77729927
Probably going to leave it if no one is in the thread lol
Can you imagine how much freaky freak sex you could have had at midnight in a circus in 1948? Ain't no fuckin' AIDS back then.
>>77729938
don't leave
>>77729949
>>77729969
>>77729943
Would you fuck Hellboys sister?
>>77729980
>>77729980
Of course not.She would fuck me.
>>77729989
>>77729866
Awesome! Never read this one before.
>>77730005
>>77730006
Probably one of my favorites that isn't drawn by Mike
>>77730014
>>77730018
>>77730025
>>77729969
Goddamn Zinco again, lol.
>>77730031
Absolutely love this page

>>77729980
>>77729969
>>77729938
Gotta say the only problem with kid Hellboy is he never looks like an actual kid. Like, facial proportions and stuff.
