Hellboy Omnibus Volume 3: The Wild Hunt by Mike Mignola

5.0

This book is like a sandwich made of layers - each one better and tastier than the other. Art is extraordinary, characters and mythology are just breath-taking. There is only one other world-building enterprise that left this impact on me and that is Horus Heresy series from Black Library.

Although Hellboy tries to avoid the mess of fighting otherworldly creatures and tries to find peace it is not to be.
SpoilerAfter witches of England try to crown him as their king, his rejection together with child-like behavior of old beings from Earth's myth will bring Hellboy on the collision course against the demon bent on bringing doom and utter destruction upon the world (although everything ends up in a way nobody could predict). It seems that with the rise of the Queen of Blood end of world quickly follows.


if you enjoy fantasy, folk tales and mythology read this omnibus. One of the greatest qualities of Mike Mignola's work is that you can pick any book in any order and you will greatly enjoy it.

Highly recommended to all fantasy and of course Hellboy fans.
