Hellboy Library Volume 1: Seed of Destruction and Wake the Devil

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. Hellboy Library Edition Volume 1 collects the first two story-arcs -- Seed of Destruction and Wake the Devil -- with the original introductions by Robert Bloch and Alan Moore and expanded Mignola sketchbook sections.
