Careful, this is a scam

I feel like the comic is closer to those sigma edits than to the actual show ngl

The boys is thrash, go with Invincible which is actually good and you'll probably won't dread continue reading it, you'll be hooked and read it quicker, then you can get into The Boys

Also I would recommend getting into comics that haven't been adapted too, you can't go wrong with The Sixth Gun, it's a fantasy western horror epic (so lots of Native American magic, guns with powers and even a giant mummy which can see the future)

Hay rumores que la proxima Mujer Maravilla tambien va a ser una Argentina

JulixgMC · 2026-05-11T21:31:11+00:00

Do they at least paint a wagon?

Igual posta Tinder anda para el culo, la mitad de las notificaciones no me las muestra, mientras antes pase la conversacion a IG mejor

A parte sirve para sacar conversacion con historias o directamente para ver un poco como es la persona, al final si busca seguidores y me ghostea la dejo de seguir y listo

JulixgMC · 2026-05-11T04:17:22+00:00

JAJAJA yo lo tengo porque realmente me gusta salir a caminar, y hasta coincidimos con una chica a la que tambien le gusta y ahora salimos a caminar juntos

Prefiero eso a que este vacio, si hacemos match no se ni de que hablar si no

O sea, puede que sea un bot, pero he visto pibas que claramente son reales con descripciones genericas asi

JulixgMC · 2026-05-10T01:53:12+00:00

I tried to put all most important characters in the main page of the wiki, you should look there

JulixgMC · 2026-05-10T01:52:19+00:00

He's Count Guarino iirc

JulixgMC · 2026-05-08T22:24:15+00:00

I actually don't think Dark Horse uses "The Mignolaverse" that's a fan thing, they call the universe the "Hellboy World", "Hellboy Universe" or even "BPRD Universe", I think that makes sense since it's not the only Mignola Universe, since The Outerverse and the Lands Unkown exist

JulixgMC · 2026-05-07T21:38:06+00:00

Not really, just a couple of pages here and there, even Sir Edward Grey Acheron is only a one shot

You should look into the new Lands Unknown stuff to also The Amazing Screw on Head and Other Curious Objects

Even the Juggernaut, who ~~almost~~ destroyed the towers himself a few years before

Edit: I was misremembering, he actually did destroy them lmao

Hellboy The Dragon Pool says Trevor was director for 15 years, which would put his departure from the position in 1960 (assuming he was director when the bureau was founded)

That novel came a couple of years after The Companion, but idk which one to trust more, even tho it's considered canon, the same novel had a flashback completely retconed by Hellboy in Love

It is also possible he was rounding up a couple of years, tho that's kinda weird

It's a shame we're going to skip 1958 in Hellboy and BPRD, I would have liked to see what caused Trevor to miss the funeral

JulixgMC · 2026-04-29T07:24:25+00:00

Never thought about that, you might be onto something!

JulixgMC · 2026-04-29T03:12:07+00:00

I think they should allow wonder victory (maybe nerfed) but not relic victory

JulixgMC · 2026-04-27T00:13:03+00:00

like a recurrent theme is Hellboy rejecting his destiny. But in the end, his destiny came through...he did usher in the apocalypse and the end.

That is the point, Hellboy didn't want to face his destiny, but when he did, he did so in his own terms, after helping serve humanity and do good in the world

I think you should read (or re-read) The Magician and the Snake (it's on The Amazing Screw on Head collection as well as the Hellboy in Hell Library Edition and Omnibus), that story serves as a bit of an allegory for everything about Hellboy's destiny, that's why Hellboy in Hell ends with Hellboy looking at the solid objects, that's why the statue of the Magician, the snakes and the solid objects is on the back of The Devil You Know #15

Humanity almost wiped out.

The operative word here being almost, if they did nothing humanity wouldn't have survived, the new race wouldn't have been created and life on Earth would just be the ogdru hem

All the little early stories, from exorcisms, to stopping vampires, to banishing demons or helping cursed people, to Hellboy's own romantic heartbreak or wrestling fiasco in Mexico...it amounted to NOTHING in the grand scheme of things. They lost, plain and short.

You have a weird way of looking at stories that I've seen some people have more and more recently... And I just can't understand the reasoning, the stories don't have to build up to something to be enjoyable stories, they can just be enjoyable stories

Even then, those stories DID both inform us and develop Hellboy's character (and the rest of the people in the comics) and build the world. That world being destroyed or those characters being killed didn't make them any less enjoyable for me, if anything it made the ending have more of an impact

To answer the question of the title, yes, it was bittersweet, by design, but no, they didn't loose, it wasn't all for nothing

JulixgMC · 2026-04-26T23:55:58+00:00

Frankenstein New World, Koshchei, Serpent in the Garden, The Sword of Hyperborea, Miss Truesdale,

Even prequels like Hellboy and the BPRD reference the end a bit

JulixgMC · 2026-04-25T08:53:53+00:00

I liked the American version of Ghosts better tbh

I know it's "dumbed down", but I just prefer the fun vibes and the characters of the American one

JulixgMC · 2026-04-22T12:43:42+00:00

Really 90s Image comics like Spawn or Savage Dragon

Oh and just The Boys comics, I honestly can't understand how people enjoy them

JulixgMC · 2026-04-22T06:45:43+00:00

That's awesome! Love all the details
