Legendary Hellboy creator Mike Mignola is reuniting with acclaimed writer Thomas E. Sniegoski and renowned artist Craig Rousseau for a brand-new adventure from Hellboy\u2019s youth. Written by Mignola and Sniegoski, with art from Rousseau, colors by Chris O\u2019Halloran, and letters from Clem Robins, Young Hellboy: Thrilling Sky Adventures<\/b> will be a fun-filled four-issue miniseries starring Young Hellboy and his hero Scarlett Santiago. Each issue will feature covers by Rousseau and a variant cover. Issue #1 will feature a variant cover drawn by David Hitchcock and a Blank ‘Sketch Variant’ cover.<\/p>\n

Fans first met the swashbuckling airborne adventurer Scarlett Santiago in Mignola, Sniegoski, and Rousseau\u2019s 2021 Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land,<\/i> when she helped Hellboy and Professor Bruttenholm navigate an island of mysterious monsters and vampires. Now the pulp-inspired hero stars in her very own comic book, and young Hellboy is still her number one fan. In this comic adventure within a comic adventure, Scarlett Santiago may have vanquished too many villains and made too many enemies to keep a low profile on the streets anymore. To keep herself safe and defeat the bad guys who are after her, she teams up with a mysterious, feline figure who has similar goals.The new heroic duo goes toe to toe with new dastardly foes in a series that\u2019s sure to entertain Hellboy and Hellboy\u2019s fans alike.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSince wrapping up the Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land<\/i>, I\u2019d been thinking about Scarlett Santiago, the Sky Devil, and how much we still didn\u2019t know about her past adventures (before being possessed by the spirit of a giant ape god),\u201d Explains writer Thomas E. Sniegoski. \u201cI was hoping that there would be a way to tell some of Sky Devil\u2019s earlier exploits, and with Thrilling Sky Adventures,<\/i> we\u2019re getting to do just that.\u00a0 The whole team has excitedly returned, Mike Mignola and I coming up with the story, Craig Rousseau on art, Chris O\u2019Halloran on colors and Clem Robins doing the lettering.\u00a0 The series is coming out great, and I can\u2019t wait for folks to be immersed in its pulpy goodness!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving the opportunity to work on more Young Hellboy<\/i><\/b> is an absolute treat,\u201d says artist Craig Rousseau. \u201cIt\u2019s fun working with some of my all time favorite creative partners to expand on the story of Scarlett Santiago, Sky Devil and introduce The Ghost Leopard. Every script gets bigger and crazier and Tom and Mike know how to write some wild pulpy adventure to expand her backstory (and getting me to draw gangsters, biplanes, wild animals, crazy monsters and so much more). Speaking of which, back to the drawing board!\u201d<\/p>\n

Praise for<\/b> Young Hellboy<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cA loving tribute to the pulp adventure stories of the 1930s.\u201d<\/b>\u2015FORBES<\/p>\n

\u201cTotally fun.\u201d<\/b>\u2015COMICS BEAT<\/p>\n

\u201cYoung Hellboy: The Hidden Land<\/i> has all the things you really want from a Mignola comic: Hellboy being sassy, danger overcome in unexpected ways, giant monsters, giant gorillas, plus a healthy serving of new characters, unexpected additions like dinosaurs, and perhaps a tie into the larger world (that remains to be seen, just my theory for now). \u2026 The most exhilarating<\/b> thing about the Young Hellboy<\/i> series though is the artwork by Craig Rousseau.\u201d\u2014COMICBOOK.COM<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIntriguing.\u201d<\/b>\u2015SYFY WIRE<\/p>\n

\u201cPacks a lot of punch<\/b> from a mysterious island, vampire queens, dinosaurs, giant ape gods, and the Sky Devil herself.\u201d\u2014AIPT\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cA delightful throwback to globe-trotting adventure films, mixed with the supernatural elements that have come to define the Hellboy mythos.<\/b> It\u2019s also easily accessible to new readers and a deeper exploration of Hellboy\u2019s life for longtime fans.\u201d\u2014BUT WHY THO<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s King Kong style fun!\u201d<\/b>\u2014MONKEYS FIGHTING ROBOTS<\/p>\n

\u201cThomas Sniegoski and Mike Mignola are clearly having a blast with this one<\/b>, and their joy is our gain. Young Hellboy<\/i> is a rip-roaring fun time, hitting all the right notes of a world-hopping pulp adventure.\u201d\u2014THE PULL BOX\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI can imagine it being performed on the radio back in the 1940s, popping off the pages of a<\/b> John Carter<\/i><\/b> book, or coming to life in a<\/b> Howling Commandos<\/i><\/b> comic.<\/b> The joy is in which terrible thing our characters will come across next and how they will get out of it.\u00a0 This is a really great way to introduce Hellboy to younger readers! The script is fast paced, and the art is a lot of fun.\u201d\u2014 FANBASE PRESS<\/p>\n

\u201cDelightful.\u201d<\/b>\u2014GEEK DAD<\/p>\n

\u201cA vibrant and wonderful comic \u2013 an issue that left me with a smile on my face.\u201d\u2015FLICKERING MYTH<\/p>\n

\u201cI am an unabashed Hellboy fan. I love it. The mythology that Mignola created is in my top favorite media creations. So, when I say that this comic is good, I mean it.\u00a0 It easily stacks up to all the other Hellboy I\u2019ve read. You don\u2019t lose anything by reading about him as a youngster. In fact, you get a bit more extra sass, and giant crabs!\u201d\u2014FANGIRL NATION<\/p>\n

\u201cShares a lot of its DNA with adventures like Flash Gordon, Indiana Jones, and Tarzan. There\u2019s an aspect where it doesn\u2019t take itself too seriously and knows exactly what it wants to be and that\u2019s a lot of fun.\u201d\u2015GRAPHIC POLICY<\/p>\n

\u201cCraig Rousseau\u2019s art style is perfect for YOUNG HELLBOY… Rousseau\u2019s expressive faces and the fluidity of movement helps drive the action and excitement.\u201d\u2014 CONSKIPPER<\/p>\n

\u201cHellboy\u2019s younger years are fertile storytelling ground.\u201d<\/b>\u2014BIFF BAM POP<\/p>\n

\u201cThrilling.\u201d<\/b>\u2014SUPER POWERED FANCAST<\/p>\n

\u201cWonderful.\u201d<\/b>\u2014IMPULSE GAMER<\/p>\n

\u201cMignola, Sniegoski, and the rest of the team have crafted a young adult Hellboy story that is candy for my soul.\u201d\u2014 FANBASE PRESS<\/p>\n
