Hellboy, Vol. 3: The Chained Coffin and Others by Mike Mignola
4.0
The guy who did the introduction claims that The Corpse is the best Hellboy story of all time, but it's not even the best story in this volume. There's seven short stories in here, although using "story" to describe some of them is being generous, Mignola admits himself that at least one is simply filler. My favourite was Almost Colossus which ties up a lose end from Wake the Devil, and seems to introduce a new recurring character. Overall, this is the first Hellboy volume that's made me genuinely excited to read the next, rather than simply curious.
