Hellboy, Vol. 1: Seed of Destruction (2004)
It's been a number of years since I first read Seed of Destruction, the first Hellboy book, and, having read all of them at this point, I decided to go back and re-read the first book because my memories of it were hazy. Well, as I suspected, it's not a great first volume - but Hellboy is an incr...
Hellboy, Vol. 9: The Wild Hunt (2010)

This is an ecclectic collection of Hellboy short stories done by a variety of artists who were not Mignola. All of them are good, some of them are excellent. I do really like the format of a bunch of random stories, but I feel like they would have made a better coda to the collected editions inst...
