When strangeness threatens to engulf the world, a strange man will come to save it. Sent to investigate a mystery with supernatural overtones, Hellboy discovers the secrets of his own origins, and his link to the Nazi occultists who promised Hitler a final solution in the form of a demonic avatar.

This third Hellboy collection compiles all material not included in Seed of Destruction or Wake the Devil. Mike Mignola's story notes accompany the long out-of-print one-shots "Wolves of Saint August" and "The Corpse and the Iron Shoes," as well as "A Christmas Underground," "The Chained Coffin," in color for the first time, and "Almost Colossus," with new story pages. Also included is a pinup gallery featuring Kevin Nowlan, Duncan Fegredo, and others, as well as an all-new tale.

Hellboy is one of the most celebrated comics series in recent years. Mike Mignola is the ultimate artists' artist and a great storyteller whose work is in turns haunting, hilarious, and spellbinding.

"Hellboy restores my faith in the joy of comic books."

--Clive Barker
