March 22 marks the twentieth anniversary of Mike
Mignola’s career-defining release of Hellboy:
Seed of Destruction #1. After the character’s somewhat humble beginnings in
an eight-page feature in Dark Horse’s San
Diego Comic-Con Comics special, Seed
of Destruction would begin the long life of the beloved “beast of the
apocalypse.”
In December, Dark Horse
announced March 22, 2014, would be Hellboy Day, with events happening in comic
shops around the world!
In addition to a slew of
exclusive giveaways, Dark Horse has produced an all-new sampler comic featuring two classic Mignola tales, “The Ghoul” and “Another Day at the
Office,” as well as two new stories by Mignola, Fábio Moon, and R. Sikoryak!
Additionally, as part of this
special promotion, participating retailers were entered to win an original
piece of art from Mike Mignola. This special honor goes to Hot Comics and Collectibles
in New Hope, Minnesota!
Look for the Hellboy: The First 20 Years hardcover
collection, on sale in comic shops everywhere on March 19! This deluxe oversized hardcover presents Mignola’s favorite covers
and illustrations in gallery style, from his first drawing of Hellboy through
twenty years of publishing.
See below for the list of stores
hosting signings and events with the creators currently working in the Hellboy universe! Check the Dark Horse NewsFeed for a complete list of stores
participating in this special anniversary celebration!
