Legendary creator Mike Mignola and Dark Horse Comics have devilish plans for Hellboy this winter. In October, Mignola and artist Cyrille Pomès (Moon, 6,000 Miles to Freedom) will return to the iconic Hellboy in Hell saga with Hellboy in Hell: Nothing But Blood. Then, in December, Mignola will reunite with Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.:Time is a River artist Márk László for Hellboy In Hell: Parade of Horrors – a two-issue comic event that finds Hellboy attending the Devil’s funeral. Written by Mignola with art by László, colors by Dave Stewart, and letters by Clem Robins, both issues of Hellboy In Hell: Parade of Horrors will feature covers by László; with a variant cover from Mignola on issue 1, and Bridgit Connell on issue 2.

“I hadn’t planned to return to Hellboy’s HELL — I certainly didn’t think I’d ever let anyone else in there. But I love Márk’s work, and when we met he said he wanted to do a story set there. Well, how could I say no?” asks Mike Mignola. “Fortunately, there were a couple big holes between the chapters I’d drawn and I thought Márk would have fun with those two dead soldiers we meet in ‘The Three Gold Whips’ — and he did! I only gave him a rough outline for a story, and he took it from there. And as things took shape, we found a place to introduce a bit more of the history of the place. Every time I think we are done with this thing it seems we find there are just a few more bits and pieces to explore, which I guess is a good thing.”

First published between 2012-2016, Hellboy in Hell is a major milestone for the Hellboy Universe that finally revealed the truth about Hellboy’s origins. Now, a decade after its conclusion, Mike Mignola is teaming up with a new generation of artists to expand his vision of Hell.

“Ever since reading Hellboy in Hell, Mike’s version of the place (Hell) always felt like such a fun, rich visual playground to me: all those dark landscapes, the endless, bleak villages, the set of characters lurking inside,” said László. “When I spoke with Mike about what could I do as a next Hellboy project, I

knew I wanted to draw a story that is set in there. To my delight, he found a spot between two of the chapters of his original run where I could expand the story a little, and the whole thing was built up from there. It’s all made up of stuff I’m very happy to draw: Hellboy stumbling through parading demons,

dancing skeletons, bloody fights, and I even got to draw a few glimpses from the history behind this version of Hell.”

Following the events of Hellboy in Hell: Nothing But Blood, Hellboy sets off in search of a drink, but finds himself in a cemetery just in time to witness a macabre procession in honor of Satan’s death. Not all of the demons are happy to see him after their Lord’s murder. This morbid celebration in the pits of Pandemonium will introduce readers to a horrific host of new characters haunting the hallowed halls of Hell and send Hellboy on an all-new adventure in surreal depths of Mike Mignola’s singular version of Hell.
