I was smiling through this entire book! Just like 1952 this trade feels like a call back to the original Hellboy comics and I couldn't be happier. 1953 is a collection of shorts, some longer than others. I've always enjoyed Hellboy stories being told in this format. Though long form is great too, shorter stories allow for more intimate interactions which is where Hellboy as a character really shines. We are back to punching monsters and demons which is also where Hellboy thrives. I'm really loving the 1950's series and can't wait to read more!
