The art, as you'd imagine, is beautiful and full of shade and nuance. From the off both Hellboy and Rasputin are both forceful and dynamic on the page. I'm not a big fan of the whole Lovecraft pantheon type stuff but here, kept to a minimum, it works well.
The story is an origin tale that gives away very little with regard to H's origin. It has a nicely Gothic setting and things aren't quite what they seem.
Lots of fun to read and I wholeheartedly intend to catch up on the ones I don't have.
