Hellboy: The Sleeping and the Dead

In this two-issue miniseries from Dark Horse, Mike Mignola sends Hellboy to a remote English village, where a long-buried secret stirs beneath the churchyard. Artist Scott Hampton brings a moody, painted atmosphere to this self-contained story, which deepens the folklore and eerie tension of Hellboy’s world. It’s a compact, atmospheric chapter that showcases Mignola’s knack for blending supernatural horror with quiet, character-driven dread.
