Hellboy (Vol. 6): Strange Places: Two more mythos-building Hellboy tales

Hellboy (vol. 6): Strange Places by Mike Mignola (writer and artist) & Dave Stewart (colorist)

Strange Places is a collection of two top-notch Hellboy stories. “The Third Wish,” the first story, takes Hellboy to Africa.

There he is captured by three mermaids who turn him over to their grandmother, the Bog Roosh, a large fish-like creature. The Bog Roosh traps him in bones made from a man who blames Hellboy for his murder.

What a shame.

I should admit that The Killing Dance must have been well conceived and written because it really affected me — I was utterly devastated.
