BPRD Hell on Earth:The Pickens County Horror

Scott Allie speaks Pickens.

And I correct them about Vaughn :D

Great art, but Vaughn as a character was purely reactionary and survived through dumb luck. Having most of the second issue's dialogue be slimy ghostly screaming didn't do it any favors, either. Great art, though. Latour is the real deal.

You're not the only one who thinks so. This review is pretty damning of the second-issue's writing. I still had fun with this story, but I was quite lenient with it, knowing there's a larger story in the works here. Truthfully though, this last issue had jumbled writing and could've been better.

Pickens County was an issue too short, in my opinion. The last part of the second issue was just too compressed.

Yeah, it could've really used another issue to breathe. It made the pacing feel a bit off, especially that abrupt ending.

I love The Factual Opinion. Tucker Stone writes for the Comics Journal now, too.

Plus it'd mean more of Latour's art.

I mean, that guy can draw (sorry if I spoiled it for anyone!):


Her waist? Proof he knows what a woman looks like.

Was anyone else intrigued by the mention of Rev. Treadwell? It was like when Sir Grey was first mentioned in Wake the Devil. They don't really have a Revolutionary era monster fighter in the Mignola-verse, this might be his first mention.

That trade cover is beautiful!

[didism]

Truly great cover for The Three stories.

But I wonder when will Exorcism be collected.

[Middenway]

I imagine it will be collected with other Ashley Strode stories when Cameron Stewart is finished with them, but nothing has been said about it yet.

Heh, I can't help seeing mr Mike himself as walking into that picture, with the glasses and that suit on, like

"Hey yeah I know this place, turns out as - meh - pretty okay I guess..."

with Hellboy sort of knowing of having him behind him, seemingly as pretty much not amused, as like:

"Aw crap, I knew this was gonna happen sooner or later. Who is gonna shepherd that dude clear from
stinky mushrooms or skeletons up closets but me, the big guy.
Stab me, mold me, kill me, why not?! Tag along, sure, there's gonna be sights to see.
I can take it, I can make it all work out since I got me this jolly old big hand right here..."


It's just a thought, in the back of my mind, seeming amusing to me in ways.
