5.0

In most cases I would probably give this a 4.25 or 4.5 rating. Pretty darn high, it turns out that Hellboy is rad as hell and he punches nazi's frequently. However I'm putting it at a five because one of its stories contains a moment that so vividly, beautifully, and terribly encapsulates my personal frustrations with faith that I'm quite seriously going to try and get a print of the specific pages in question. "Wolves of St. August", for those who have already read and know which one I'm talking about. 

So it's getting a five star. Which isn't a huge upgrade, because this is already a pretty rad volume. Absolutely going to snag the other Omnibus's as I find them. More! Nazi! Punching! Ahead!
