Hellboy Volume 9: The Wild Hunt

by Mike Mignola

Hellboy is turning into one of those series where I wish I had a quick episode guide so I could jump-start my long-term memory and figure out all the different threads that are coming together.

The story is starting to feel very epic, but I do have a complaint about a big plot reveal. The Arthurian legend? Really? Mignola is way too creative to do what others have already done before him. The shoehorning of the Arthurian legend into a story that stood quite strongly on its own dropped this from 4 stars to 3 for me.
