Mike Mignola isn't doing as much with Hellboy as he used to. But, with new collections of classic material and fresh storylines about the Right Hand of Doom and the BPRD coming out, he's never too far from his signature creation.

For those of us outside the production loop, it seemed like the announcement of the upcoming Hellboy reboot came from nowhere. But Hellboy creator Mike Mignola says work had been proceeding slowly for years. Then, all of a sudden, things started happening really fast.

In Mike Mignola's Hellboy series, Grigori Rasputin is the famed Russian occultist whose collaboration with German Nazis to bring about the apocalypse during World War II accidentally brought Hellboy to Earth. Hellboy goes on to become one of the world's greatest heroes and Rasputin.... well. He's an evil arsehole.

Hellboy creator Mike Mignola announced on Facebook that there will be an R-rated big screen reboot for the demonic hero, this time starring Stranger Things' David Harbour. Sadly, Guillermo del Toro seems to be nowhere in sight.

Last year, comics legend Mike Mignola announced that he'd be taking a break from the world of comics after the poignant end to his work on Hellboy in Hell. Well, consider that break over (for now): We can exclusively reveal that Mignola is teaming up with Helena Crash artist Warwick Johnson-Cadwell for a new graphic novel.

Mike Mignola has said goodbye to his most famous creation (at least for now). Today, the final issue of Hellboy in Hell was released, and there's no last triumph among its pages, no final gruelling battle. It simply ends. In an age of high-spectacle comic books, shocking events and massive scale, there's something incredibly powerful about that.
