Product Description:
The second collection of short stories by award-winning cartoonist Mike Mignola includes the 1999 hit series Box Full of Evil; 'The Right Hand of Doom,' which concisely and thoroughly examines Hellboy's history; and 'Pancakes,' Mignola's most hilarious and surprising story to date; and others - many presented here in colour for the very first time.

This series has inspired me to start saving money to tattoo my body red, get a stone hand, and surgically attach broken horns to my head. Thank you Hellboy.

The Right Hand of Doom is also a collection of stories, with the final few dealing with who and what Hellboy actually is, and why he is important to those on this earth, and those not.
To balance that at the beginning is a young Hellboy story, and through Hellboy versus a variety of supernaturals, from dragons to floating heads.

This collection includes the stories Pancakes, The Nature of the Beast, King Vold, Heads, Goodbye Mister Tod, The Varcolac, The Right Hand of Doom, and Box Full of Evil. There are also several pages of sketches at the end. The artwork is awesome, and the stories are usually pretty good. My favorites were Heads (Hellboy steps into a really freaky Japanese folktale) and Box Full of Evil, which is one of the longer stories of the bunch. Pancakes, one of the shortest, was pretty cute. This probably wasn't the best collection for a beginner like me to start with, but it wasn't bad. The only thing I really missed was a better insight into the characters involved - other than the Hellboy movie, I have absolutely not experience with any of the Hellboy characters, and I'm starting find out how different the movie is from the comics.

"Hellboy: The Right Hand of Doom" is Hellboy at its finest. Like HP Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe, it is in the short story that Mignola really shines with his hell-born characters.
This short story collection contains a host of odd and enjoyable adventures for Anung Un Rama, otherwise known as Hellboy. Making his way through the mythologies and folklore of several countries, he encounters beasties like Japanese vampires, King Vold and Roger. Well-researched, Mignola threads together these various traditionals into a cohesive story, with the Christian God and Devil at the center, and Hellboy bridging the gap.
By far some of the most intelligent and well-written stories in modern comics, Hellboy never disappoints. Non-comics readers as well enjoy Hellboy, and my copy has been well-read by many people. "Hellboy: The Right Hand of Doom" is an excellent starting point, and can be read with no previous knowledge of the characters.
"He has eaten the pancakes. He will never come back to us now."

When hellboy came out I thought he was one of the coolest things to come into the world of comics in a long time. I was takin a liking from the very first page to the last and I have alot of the hell boy editions but this one is just as good as the others but it's certainly not the best!
