All-New Art from Legendary Hellboy Creator Mike Mignola Caps the Dark Horse Direct Celebration of 30 Years of Hellboy Comics
A Hand-Numbered, Limited Edition Screenprint Just In Time for Halloween
Throughout 2024, Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, Dark Horse Direct, and curator Eric Garza have teamed up to produce the Hellboy 30th Anniversary screenprint line, reproducing some of the most iconic images in the fan-favorite character’s history. Now, Mignola has created a brand-new piece of artwork to complete this line of incredible screenprints and honor three decades worth of Hellboy adventures. Featuring colors by Dave Stewart, this striking piece will be available exclusively from Dark Horse Direct as a limited edition of 300.
The Hellboy 30th Anniversary Special Screenprint is the sixth and final Hellboy 30th Anniversary screenprint. While the Seed of Destruction #1, Wake the Devil 1994 Comic Ad, Dark Horse Presents #90, The Corpse and the Iron Shoes, and Pancakes screenprints all reproduce pivotal moments in Hellboy’s history, this final screenprint represents the culmination of the character’s legacy, juxtaposing images of the hero as a child and as the devilish Anung un Rama surrounded by some of his most fearsome foes.
This new, 9-color screenprint is 24 inches wide by 36 inches tall and printed on 100# Cougar uncoated paper. Hand-numbered and limited to 300 copies, this collector’s piece is expected to ship in February 2025. The Hellboy 30th Anniversary Special Screenprint is $75.00. Fans can pre-order now and order the other screen prints in the Hellboy 30th Anniversary collection exclusively from Dark Horse Direct.
About Mike Mignola
Mike Mignola's fascination with ghosts and monsters began at an early age; reading Dracula at age twelve introduced him to Victorian literature and folklore, from which he has never recovered. Starting in 1982 as a bad inker for Marvel Comics, he swiftly evolved into a not-so-bad artist. By the late 1980s, he had begun to develop his own unique graphic style, with mainstream projects like Cosmic Odyssey and Batman: Gotham by Gaslight. In 1994, he published the first Hellboy series through Dark Horse. There are thirteen Hellboy graphic novels (with more on the way), several spin-off titles (B.P.R.D., Lobster Johnson, Abe Sapien, and Sir Edward Grey: Witchfinder), prose books, animated films, and two live-action films starring Ron Perlman. Along the way he worked on Francis Ford Coppola's film Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), was a production designer for Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001), and was the visual consultant to director Guillermo del Toro on Blade II (2002), Hellboy (2004), and Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008). Mike's books have earned numerous awards and are published in a great many countries. Mike lives in Southern California with his wife, daughter, and cat.
