HELLBOY CREATOR ILLUSTRATING FIRST NEW COMIC IN YEARS

Mike Mignola

For the first time in five years, the creator of Hellboy, Mike Mignola, is both writing and illustrating a full length comic book. Titled Sir Edward Grey: Acheron, the one shot story is set following the events of B.P.R.D.: The Devil You Know, in which the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense managed to fight off the monsters on earth long enough for humanity to barely escape underground. This upcoming publication from Dark Horse Comics promises to start the next chapter in the Hellboy Universe of fantasy storytelling. 

The story is Mignola’s first full length comic book since Dark Horse Comics published Hellboy in Hell in 2016. In Sir Edward Grey: Acheron, Mignola reunites with award-winning colorist Dave Stewart, as well as letterer and longtime collaborator Clem Robbins. Dark Horse Comics is scheduled to release Sir Edward Grey: Acheron on December 1, 2021 featuring a main cover by Mignola and Stewart and a variant cover by acclaimed artist Ben Stenbeck and Stewart.

In Sir Edward Grey: Acheron, Hellboy is dead and gone and the B.P.R.D. are underground. So it turns to the ghost of a Victorian-era occult investigator named Edward Grey to return to Hell to confront a familiar foe and finish what needs to be done to truly save the world. This ghost is ready to bust some demons up to save the future of the Earth!
