Plot
Hellboy seeks out Dr. Campbell to find Dr. Sheffield, who appears and transforms into crows. Hellboy discovers that Anastasia is at the excavation site.
At the site, the witch Delilah is about to sacrifice Anastasia to obtain weapons using a hammer and anvil, with the help of the Obsidian Dance cult.
But Hellboy arrives, frees Anastasia, and destroys the excavation site, trapping the witch and the secrets Anastasia so desperately wants about the portal to Suaren Artea.
Hellboy makes peace with his father, Dr. Bruttenholm, and visits him with Anastasia.
This story, which blends supernatural horror and romance with a vulnerable and hopelessly lovestruck Hellboy, concludes somewhat hastily.>
Artwork
Alex Nieto delivers artwork with a naive tone that also achieves a brilliant, funereal effect for this story. The color palette shifts between red, orange, and green in its various iterations, offering a sepia-toned atmosphere that transports us to the 1970s.
Summary
Hellboy discovers Anastasia's whereabouts and must stop the terrible ritual. The conclusion of another Hellboy supernatural romance. more+ Like • Comment
