Hellboy is dead

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Mike Mignola did it.

Oh my, one of my heroes is soon gone.
 
But to be honest, since the time when Hellboy left the BPRD the Hellboy stories did not really appeal to me anymore.
I just loved the initial comics with the evil Nazi villains, but the longer the series went, the stranger all opponents grew.
Not always to my liking. Fortunately the BPRD story were getting better and better at the same time!

Does the term "spoiler" mean anything to you, Prof?

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Yes, but that’s not me, that’s Dark Horse, check their start page

Yes, but I wouldn't have seen that page if you hadn't posted about it here. 

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Yes, but I wouldn't have seen that page if you hadn't posted about it here. 

Better you hear it from me now than from somebody else later

Its comics, Mignola will have him back where he wants him when he wants him.

Well, like Mignola  said; there's enough to tell about Hellboy in between the beginning and end, and I'm happy about that. But personally I don't think Mignola will bring him back from the dead, even this is comics.

I agree on that Agis. Let's hope those possible Hellboy stories will be more like those!

[Doomsdave]

His BPRD stories were the best ones.

NOOOOOOOO!!!!

[Hammers]

Oh.

...

I am a bit torn about this outcome. I have not been this interested in  a cartoon character since, I don't know...Tintin? Blake & Mortimer? Opus of Bloom County? Maggie and Hopey of Love & Rockets? and I have been looking forward to read more about him for almost every album released. Therefore it is a great pity he's been let go. But all good characters have an arch and must come to an end to avoid that godawfull hell which is syndicated comics like Hagar the Horrible.

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Well, I’m torn about that too. On the one hand, how Agis said, the later Hellboy stories were getting more strange and Hellboy too melancholy. Mignola just ran dry of ideas. On the other hand it’s a pity to see one of my favorite heroes gone. Sure, Mignola will create more new Hellboy stories, from his past etc. Anyway, it isn’t a good feeling to know that Hellboy is no more.

Aye, that's been another problem. No one can match his art but he's been pretty, I don't know, careless about the production of some albums.

Hellboy in BPRD was certainly his golden age. I did however enjoy some of the other stories to. Corben did a cracking job on a couple of them.
