Hellboy: Buster Oakley Gets His Wish

In this 2011 one-shot from Dark Horse, Mike Mignola and artist Kevin Nowlan step away from Hellboy's usual adventures for a standalone yarn set in the B.P.R.D. universe. A strange wish-granting figure named Buster Oakley emerges, offering a deceptively simple deal that quickly spirals into supernatural chaos. Nowlan's crisp, atmospheric art brings a folk-horror quality to Mignola's signature mix of myth and mischief. It's a compact, self-contained story that showcases the creative chemistry between two longtime collaborators.
