Product Description
Since Mike Mignola's Hellboy first hit the stands in 1993, it has become a cultural sensation, racking up a dozen Eisner Awards and inspiring numerous spinoffs, from a novel line, to video games, to feature films. Now, Dark Horse is pleased to present the comics that started it all, collected in deluxe hardcover editions. Sized at 9" by 12", and handsomely bound to match The Art of Hellboy hardcover, each volume contains two full story-arcs - the equivalent of two trade-paperbacks. Each volume of the Hellboy Library Editions also includes extensive supplemental materials, including previously unreleased sketches and designs.

5 out of 5 stars buy this, you won't regret it   October 3, 2008
i forgot how good "seeds of destruction" is. i also forgot the difference between "seeds" and the first movie. the art just looks better on the bigger pages, i found myself just staring and taking it all in. my only complaint is the cover material. if you have any pets this will be covered in hair, i wish it would have come with a slip case.


5 out of 5 stars Hellboy Library Edition Vol 1   September 27, 2008
This collection has to be seen to be appreciated. I actually saw this at a comix store while away on business and immediately knew I had to have it and Amazon had a stellar price I couldn't pass up. This is a beautiful compliment to the Art of Hellboy hardcover released a few years ago. I haven't placed both books next to each other (yet) but I believe they're the same size as they seem to follow the same format. This is the way the Hellboy books should be read, the larger (then the original comic book size) print and vibrant colors will make your eyes bleed with joy. That is if you get weepy looking at beautiful artwork from a master at the top of his game. 5 stars just isn't a high enough rating.


5 out of 5 stars Great volume of Hellboy goodness!   September 25, 2008
This is an amazing volume!

It contains many Hellboy stories all in one book. Each book included in this compilation included has a nice intro and dedication. There's also a very cool sketchbook section in the back and some other extras.

The stories themselves are of course amazing. If you love Hellboy but don't own the early comics, this book might be the one you want to pick up.

The binding is very well made. The cover is sturdy and coated in fabric. The book itself is big and the paper is thick and glossy. It's the most well constructed book of comics I've ever seen!



5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Quality   September 20, 2008
This is an astoundingly high quality edition. The quality of the binding and the paper is top-notch, a suitable match for the quality of the art and writing.


5 out of 5 stars Great Book To Start Off Your Hellboy Collection   September 10, 2008
I have not read Hellboy before this. Actually I did - but it was a Chinese translation of "Seed of Destruction" that I picked up years ago. Seeing that my Chinese sucked, I wouldn't actually call that "reading". Of course, Mike Mignola's artwork is probably enough of a pull to visit the world of Hellboy and BPRD.

Picked up the "Hellboy Library Edition Volume One" some weeks back on a whim and enjoyed every single page of it. This handsome, leather-bound, oversized volume collects the first two arcs "Seed of Destruction" and "Wake the Devil". I was told that Hellboy stories got far better after these arcs (co-written by veteran John Byrne) but this is where it all began. Mignola was still "looking for his voice" here but you see the beginnings of the greatness here in these tales showing the advent of the big red guy and the early appearances of Abe Sapien and Liz Sherman (later of BPRD fame).

If you've enjoyed the movies by Guillermo Del Toro, it's time to pick up the original masterpieces. This volume also comes with loads of DVD-styled extras including Mignola's sketchbooks, convention doodles, essays, etc.
