Product Description

Review
Ottakar's Outland Magazine Issue 31, Autumn 2004 : "Rather like an X'-File' investigating the 'X-files', the lantern chinned, wisecracking Hellboy is one of the most endearing heroes to have emerged in comics for a long time, coming across as fresh, inventive, and, above all, highly entertaining." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
Mike Mignola's story notes accompany the long out-of-print stories, giving insight into their creation and inspiration. Some consider Mignola's short stories better than the full-length novels, and this collection makes a strong argument for that, especially with Mignola's masterpiece, "The Corpse."

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice stories., 4 Jan 2002
This review is from: Hellboy: The Chained Coffin & Others: Chained Coffin and Other Stories (Paperback)
I think Hellboy is lots of fun. Mike Mignola was already a well regarded artist before he turned his hand to writing as well for this series. His inexperience as a writer shows a bit in the long Hellboy stories, Seed of Destruction and Wake the Devil. In the collected WTD he admits he had to re-plot the end of the book on the hoof when he found he had written himself into a corner.
This collection, which contains assorted one-shots, is more polished writing wise than the longer stories. There are some really nice touches here especially the sly folkloric learning which Mignola has picked up over the years, and it's nice to see someone approaching a supernaturally themed comic without the tiresome pretentiousness which characterises a lot of Hellblazer and Sandman stories. For all his demonic origin Hellboy is a very human character.
Another bonus in this collection is that each story is preceded by a little intro by Mignola himself saying how the idea came about which is a cool little bonus; it's always interesting to get a glimpse into the creative processes of people who are producing work you like.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mostly superb, 28 April 2003
By Paul Lambard "Paul Lambard" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hellboy: Chained Coffin and Others (Paperback)
This is a collection of great Hellboy stories. Most of which are superb.
You can tell Mike does his homework for the stories to pick up many folk tales from around the world. He then sticks Hellboy in to the middle of them and this makes for such a great read. Several times in the book I got a big idiot grin on my face reading this stuff because of the lines that Hellboy comes out with and the things he says to the monsters he is battling with. Most of the stories are set like an investigation which sets the scene and the story, bringing in the elements of the mythos behind the tale. This invariably leads to a show down with the beasts behind the mythos where Hellboy does his stylish ass kicking thing.
One of the funny things about Hellboy is he is supposed to be this big hero and sports a great big gun but he is useless with it, never hits anything and ends up losing it more than shooting it! Lucky for him he has a big stone fist that packs a punch.
The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because I am not a fan of short stories as much as the bigger ones plus I felt that some of the stories could have been explored further but were reduced to what they are to fit in the comics they were written for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy This Book, 17 Mar 2003
By Mr. G. D. Rudge "grahamrudge" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hellboy: Chained Coffin and Others (Paperback)
This is the third Hellboy Graphic Novel. The art by Mike Mignola is excellent. It is a collection of Hellboy stories. A blend of action, adventure, humour and gripping horror. Many tales are classic myths from celtic and eastern europe, and a passing nod to Frankenstein. It features the Origin of Roger the Homunculus, and explores hellboy's past. Hellboy takes on Baba Yaga and evil fairies. It contains the story of the Wolves of St August, an excellent tale later released as a graphic novel. The two issuse mini series Almost colossus, another excellent tale. All in all an excellent graphic novel.
