As we approach this year's Free Comic Book Day, I checked out an offering from Dark Horse Comics that I picked up last year. It not only featured Hellboy, but also included a short graphic piece from Netflix's "Stranger Things." There was a classic Romantic Gothic style that Mark Laszlo and Dave Stewart utilized in Hellboy's panels throughout the story by Mike Mignola. Jonathan Case used a more straightforward approach with his artwork to bring Dereck Fridolfs' story to life.
It appears that even Hellboy faces obstacles when trying to figure out the truth. This is especially true when a twenty-two-year old woman shows up in a ditch dead from natural causes. Things end up going from bad to worse when a fortune teller becomes intrigued by Hellboy. As she says, "nothing like you has ever come to me." She believes that Hellboy isn't leading the life in which he was meant to live.
At Surfer Boy Pizzas, it is business as usual. Argyle is doing his last pizza run when he finds Byers stowed away in his van. Looking for the napkin in which he wrote an address on, the van almost crashes nearly hitting a coyote. This gives Argyle the idea to share some true horror stories of his own. These include a Chupacabra, La Llorona and a Quetzalcoatl. This leads both of them to the realization that some tales aren't worth remembering!
