    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    Scott Allie writes and edits comics and stories for Dark Horse Comics and Glimmer Train Press. He's the longtime editor of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Hellboy, and brought The Umbrella Academy, Beasts of Burden, and The Goon to Dark Horse. His focus has been horror comics since a young age, which is reflected in his writing and his editing, including his first published work, Sick Smiles, a horror anthology. With Sick Smiles (1994-1996) he formed long-lasting collaborative friendships, including Kevin McGovern, with whom he created Exurbia in '94 and finally released the graphic novel in 2009. He rejoined Todd Herman, another Sick Smiles artist, in 2006 to create The Fog, a prequel to the great John Carpenter film. He's the writer or Dark Horse's adaptation of Robert E Howard's Solomon Kane, where he delves into the pulp traditions that his grandfather turned him onto as a young boy. He's currently hard at work on the sequel to his first creator owned series, The Devil's Footprints, set in his home town of Ipswich, MA. He now lives with his son in Portland, Oregon. Follow him on Twitter, where he mainly posts while on solo roadtrips through the Northwest, which he thinks extends east through the Dakotas and south through Nevada.

    Mike Mignola is best known as the multiple award-winning creator, writer, and artist of "B.P.R.D." and "Hellboy", but has fostered several other projects like "The Amazing Screw-On Head" and "Baltimore" with Christopher Golden. Although he began working as a professional cartoonist in the early 1980s, drawing 'a little bit of everything for just about everybody' - including characters like Batman and Wolverine - he was also a production designer on the Disney film "Atlantis: The Lost Empire". Mignola also acted as a visual consultant to Guillermo del Toro on "Blade 2" and the film versions of Hellboy, which were broadly adapted by del Toro from the original comic series. Mike Mignola currently lives in southern California with his wife, daughter, and cat.

I started drawing comics around the same time as Mignola...He stayed, I didn't and I came to discover his work much later in life and there are few who can compare to his artistic and creative storytelling...I've come to collect all of his work and with 'B.P.R.D....Pickens County Horror...', he just keeps proving himself a leader in keeping comics fresh.

This volume collects three unique stories.
In the first story, Jasper Dillion and his family are introduced. They are vampires.
Local people are missing. B.P.R.D. agents Vaughn and Peters arrive to investigate. Vampires? Missing people? Hmm… The agents wind up running across shadowy figures in a mysterious, moaning fog. The agents wake up in the residence of Professor Ethan Thomas. The Prof is writing the definitive history of vampires in America. Vaughn and Ethan discuss Vampires. Peters isn’t fairing so well but she’s well enough to attack Vaughn. Cue the weird stuff. Some kind of Peters-fog-ghost kills Ethan. Vaughn survives the night and visits the Dillion home. Most of the Dillion family are already dead, really dead, fungus growing from their corpses. Vaughn kills the sole surviving Dillion family member.
In the second story, we get Hellboy. Remember him? This is a flashback story where Hellboy and Dr. O'Donnell investigate the library of necromancer Alessandro Divzia. O'Donnell discovers a hidden passage to a second library. The real library. Cloaked figures appear, all great occultists, all long dead according to O'Donnell. The occultists transform into human-sized flies.
Meanwhile, Hellboy throws fists with a Minotaur.
The library burns. Hellboy and O'Donnell survive. O'Donnell is worse off from the experience.
The third story is set in Chicago. BPRD agents discover “some kind of temple.” Agent Howards discovers an ancient weapon that renders him comatose. Flashback to the distant past. The Cold People attack and are driven back and the significant history of the bladed weapon is explained. The Old Gods are stopped.
Agent Howards sleeps amidst his fellow dead agents, his hands gripping the weapon. More to be revealed in future volumes.

4.0 out of 5 stars 3 short stories in one volume
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2014
This book is a collection of shorter stories that at first don't appear to add much to the ongoing sorry, but are actually laying down some crucial foundations for later stories. "The Abyss of Time" was my favourite, introducing Agent Howards. Both this story and "The Pickens County Horror" have quite a bit of their plot wrapped up in vampires, and anyone that's been paying attention in Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. flashback books knows that that's going to be very important going forward...

We get to see other agents and members of the B.P.R.D. in action here, not the main characters of Hellboy, Abe Sapien, Liz Sherman and the rest of the gang.

While the major events are playing out in the great cities across the globe, that does not mean the highways and byways and backwaters are free of trouble either. With everyone's attention on the big incursions, smaller happenings get less attention, shorter shrift, then they might have done when things were quieter and the B.P.R.D. had time and attention and personnel to spare to investigate them fully.

That tends to go badly for the lower level agents sent out to do a quick recce and report back - sometimes (often) what seems a harmless (by comparison with the huge giant monsters wrecking Germany and Russia) routine assignment you send a rookie out on to get experience is far from that.
