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.

Format:Hardcover
I recently purchased this book after watching Hellboy 1 & 2 on Blu-Ray which got me quite interested in getting into the graphic novels by Mike Mignola from which the movies where based on.
If you are new to the graphic novel Hellboy series like myself or a long fan, these Library Editions are great value for money as each book collects 2 standard graphic novels & also provides additional material not usually found in the standard graphic novels such as concept scetches, mini stories & lots more.
Another thing which makes these Library Editions so appealing is the fact that they are quite considerably larger than the standard paper back volumes, which makes the artwork just that little bit more vibrant & helps the little details really show up nicely.
I believe there are currently two volumes available at the moment, starting with Vol 1: Seeds Of Destruction & Wake The Devil, & Vol 2: The Chained Coffin & Right Hand Of Doom.
I have already ordered Vol 2 & I believe a Vol 3 is due out soon.
If you are like myself & enjoy reading graphic novels over & over again, I would whole heartedly recommend these books as they are housed in excellent hard back covers which are guaranteed to with stand repeated reading & will look fantastic in any graphic novel collection!

I think Hellboy is one of the best comics of the last decade, and these hardbound volumes are a fabulous way of collecting this title. Included here is the complete Seed of Destruction and Wake the Devil, plus more. If you like Hellboy, buy it!
