Hellboy is so badass. What wouldn't I give for a lizard man named Abraham Sapien to be my best friend? And the graphics, the Soviet propaganda poster aesthetic embodied in Hellboy's giant red robotic fist, called into being at the end of WWII by a crazed paranormal Nazi performing satanic rituals on an island off the coast of Scotland. Thank god the film industry is so adept at comic book adaptations. The sheer visual strength of an effete fleet of muppets with giganticism... truly a triumph of the artistic imagination.
