Hellboy in Hell #1 Sells Out

A second visit to hell is better than one in very few (if any cases). One of those cases happens to be when it involves Hellboy making a trip there, taking readers along for the ride. Those same readers really like the idea of traveling to hell, as they've made Hellboy in Hell #1 a sellout. The first issue will be reprinted and in stores January 30, the same day as Hellboy in Hell #3.

After saving the world in The Storm and The Fury, but sacrificing himself and Great Britain, Hellboy is dead, cast into Hell, where he finds many familiar faces, and a throne that awaits him. After several years away, Mike Mignola returns to write and draw Hellboy's ongoing story. It's a tale only Mignola could tell, as more of Hellboy's secrets are at last revealed, in the most bizarre depiction of Hell you've ever seen.

Hellboy in Hell #2 is in stores now, so grab it if you missed the first issue and you'll be all right for all three issues on January 30.

Full press release below.

Praise for Hellboy in Hell:

"Hellboy in Hell #1 is indescribably good. No amount of hyperbole can do the book justice. Mike Mignola is back, and better than ever." - Newsarama 

"Like H.P. Lovecraft, like Robert E. Howard, like William Hope Hodgson, Mike Mignola has a unique voice and vision that many will attempt to imitate and all will fail." - Comics Bulletin 

“Unlike the homogenized pin-up art that saturates many high-profile comic books, this is a mainstream title with a truly unique vision that you won’t find anywhere else." - Complex 

“There's no denying this simple fact: it's great to have Mignola back at the drawing table again." - Comic Book Resources 

“The creator has lost none of his touch, delivering page after page with cinematic action sequences, haunting imagery, and inventive layouts that all contribute to the sense that Hellboy is on the cusp of something huge. The thought that we're going to regularly see Mignola in the artist's chair is even better.” - IGN

Hellboy in Hell #2 arrives on sale next week (January 2^nd) at fine retailers everywhere.
