    <body><![CDATA[This isn't my favorite Hellboy collection, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the stories illustrated by Richard Corben and P. Craig Russell.  I'm a big fan of both of these artists, but in general I find Mignola's style so distinctive and so enjoyable that frequently I get impatie...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/19646781">more...</a>]]></body>

It collects all the Hellboy shorts from the &quot;Dark Horse Book Of...&quot; series, as well as a piece specifically for this volume, and the two parter, &quot;Makoma&quot;.

    <body><![CDATA[As with most compilations, this one is hit-and-miss. I do enjoy the way Mignola will take an old folk tale from someplace like central Africa or Norway or Malaysia and then retell it through Hellboy. Probably my favorite in this collection is &quot;Dr. Carp's Experiment&quot;, because of the electri...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34453603">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The thing that bumped this from 4 stars to 5 is the Richard Corben illustrated Makoma story. That story is the absolute gem of this collection. I'm in awe of it still -- I've been picking the book up and flipping through Makoma since finishing the book earlier this evening. Just wonderful, wonderful...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/20343836">more...</a>]]></body>
