Hellboy: Conqueror Worm: I've already determined that I prefer the short stories more than the longer narratives, but this one works well. This is Roger's big tale, and it's wonderful in a lot of ways. I mean, it's got everything! Nazi space capsule, alien in disguise, old ghosts, and a freaking huge bad guy to beat up on Hellboy. Definitely a ride.
BPRD: Hollow Earth & Other Stories: Ah, I finally understand what the short BPRD story on the Dark Horse website is. It's in here, and it was a teaser for Hollow Earth. Abe is arguably the star of this collection, which is just fine by me. I like him, and the new background material makes him even more likable. I do wonder about the last story's possible tie with Abe's true origin. The art is mildly disappointing on some of the stories, as it's not all Mignola. But it's not horrible, either.
So I managed to get a Hellboy Heroclix to add to my minature army, and I'm now looking forward to seeing the movie eventually.
