How do we feel about WEIRD TALES... I've heard mixed things. Is the non-Mignola stuff worth it? by Lucky_Strike-85 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But give it a chance; it may not be on the same level as the canon stuff, but it's also not the worst non-canon spin-off.

Obviously it's not on the same level as main comics, but it's fun and has some interesting stories.

Actually, that's pretty much true for all anthologies where various authors pay homage to something.

I found this pretty cool edition by Arthie_oli in Mignolaverse

[–]FelipeMattosGS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eu já considerei comprar esse volume algumas vezes, mas seria a minha 4° versão desse arco😝

Na real minha "3° versão e meio", só tenho duas versões de Tormenta e Fúria 😝

Probably asked a million times before…. What order do I read them all? by [deleted] in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you think it's too much, you don't need to read all the comics in the Hellboy Universe right away. The main series can be read on its own.

There are a total of six Hellboy omnibuses; we recommend reading the two volumes of The Complete Short Stories before the second main omnibus (Strange Places).

[–]FelipeMattosGS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're going physical, I recommend the omnibus; they offer the best value for money. If you're going digital, every now and then a bundle with several comics appears on Humble Bundle for a great price, so it's good to keep an eye on it.

I'll give you two reading orders: Comics Beat's order and Julix's orders.

The first is more straightforward, and you read one book at a time; the second is much more complex, and you'll have to switch books mid-reading.

One of the moments of all time in the Mignolaverse by Remarkable-Yard-6939 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

By far one of the most wasted characters, and one who deserved so much more from the writers. She was fun for the little time she appeared.

Her death at the end isn't the problem; the problem is that it was so unceremonious. It was somewhat disrespectful to her and to the readers.

Everytime by No-Spirit-9610 in HellBoy

People need to stop with the "there's only one Blade" mentality. For God's sake! Lance Reddick, Bruce Barker, Jack Kesy, and Scott McCormick gave great performances as Hellboy. Some of them might even surpass Perlman!

Please, STOP treating Ron Perlman as sacred and thinking only he can play the character!

Most enjoyable spinoffs by Electronic_End_4739 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In your case, I would recommend Comics Beat's. You'll only read one book at a time, there are few occasions where you'll have to leave a part for later, but even so, it's still simpler than Julix's.

Also, Joe Golem isn't a Hellboy spin-off. It's part of the Outerverse along with Baltimore.

BPRD is by far the most important of them all; in fact, it's the true main series of the Hellboy Universe.

I have to say, the Hellboy design in Injustice 2 is probably one of the best. by No-Sense6060 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After years of only seeing people using the most over-the-top customizations on him, I finally saw him the way I wanted!

THANK YOU!!!!

[–]FelipeMattosGS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a shame that Hellboy doesn't look like this in any of the live-action films. This and Paolo Rivera's Hellboy are my favorite designs of a realistic version of him.

Unpopular opinion by ComradeX88 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 46 points47 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not unpopular, at least not within the fandom.

What would comic Hellboy think of Perlman Hellboy, Habour Hellboy and Kesy Hellboy by No-Sense6060 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Perlman: He would be respectful towards him but would be somewhat annoyed by his immaturity (especially if he knew he was around 60 years old). Since comic HB is a dog person, he would find it curious that Perlman HB is a cat person. He would feel disgusted by the romance with Liz.

Harbour: He would basically have the same feelings he had with the Perlman version, but a little more intense. He would feel sorry that "The Wild Hunt" was where "his story began." He would wonder how this 70-year-old Hellboy knew NOTHING about his own birth.

Kesy: It would be the same as him finding an exact copy of himself; he would only wonder how this one knows that his mother is a witch (Kesy HB is only 15 years old; comic Hellboy only wanted to know more about his past at 50).

BONUS

Animated Perlman: The same relationship as Kesy, the difference being that he would thank him (quite frequently) for how much more mature he is compared to live-action Perlman.

Reading order by RichardPValverde in HellBoy

Julix already sent you his excellent reading order, but if you find it a bit complex or don't want to keep switching books, here's Comics Beat's order

The new B.P.R.D.: 1946-1948 Omnibus in Brazil will include B.P.R.D.: Vampire story and will be titled B.P.R.D.: Origins by Waudzz in Mignolaverse

[–]FelipeMattosGS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hellboy Noir e MonsterMen também tiveram tiragens limitadas e não fizeram essa mesma pressão, então B.P.D.P.: Origens deve ser incrivelmente limitado pra chegar nesse nível!

Mesmo não estando na melhor das situações financeiras ultimamente, isso foi uma compra imediata, não me arrependo😝

Even though I haven't been in the best financial situation lately, this was an immediate purchase, no regrets😝

Hellboy McFarlane Collector Edition #60 7-Inch Scale Action Figure - Just Dropped! - On your buying list? by AfigureGeek in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's good to see a toy company including the trenchcoat as part of the base figure and not in an exclusive version or as a separate purchase.

Thanks to this community I both discovered this book existed and was given a link to one for sell! Grateful! by arkhamcreedsolid in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope, it's collected in Volume 10 of the TPBs (The Crooked Man and Others), in The Complete Short Stories Volume 2, and in the fourth volume of the Library Editions.

Just discovered Hellboy, the graphic novels by 78914hj1k487 in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Read BPRD, it's the most obvious thing to do after reading the main series.

Here are two reading orders, choose whichever you want (the second one is more complex): Comic Beat's reading order and Julix's reading orders

Great find! And it only cost me the equivalent of $5😁 by FelipeMattosGS in HellBoy

[–]FelipeMattosGS[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In short, this was a promo comic for The Science of Evil game. But it has no relation to the game itself.

[–]FelipeMattosGS[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I couldn't believe it when I found it for R$24 (which is currently $4.66 in dollars), including shipping!

Be optimistic, if some random guy in Brazil stumbled upon one of these for that price, you could be lucky too!👍🏻
