I know it's early to talk about the trade, but I'm doing it anyway...
I actually hope these first four issues end up alone in a trade. Usually there's five to six issues worth of material in a trade, but I really want to see a huge sketchbook for this one (It's happened once before with Hellboy: Strange Places which was without doubt the best sketchbook I've seen for any trade paperback). It's been so long since Mike Mignola's been the regular artist, and I'd love to see script pages, thumbnails, layouts, discarded covers... the works.
Just thought I'd put that out there.
I would sincerely appreciate a caramel frappuccino with a few smoked eels and a good coupla lard-drenched fries, four lumps, salted.
'Though my gut tells me bread and some milk might prove more preferable in the long run (we're not really seeing eye-to-eye, my gut and me - plus I really hate 'long runs').
Chillingly good stuff besides Mignola, Slint, M, Knut and really big chunks of tinfoil?Been called a 'good egg'. Been told to rock, been told to steady myself. Been told to (please) be goin' places.
Half sunk in the mud, with one eye showing / a cracked smile and hair still growing /
your hands miles apart, as if they'd never met / you were the happiest I'd seen you yet. ~ (full) lyrics to 'Exhume' by Bedhead.
I got to take a look at a bunch of uncoloured, unlettered Hellboy in Hell pages last week. Amazing stuff. Tons, and I mean tons, of crazy monsters. Can't wait to read it properly.

Wow Kelly, you are extremely lucky I'd think!

I think if I had the chance to see those my eyes might melt right out of my face...
It was at the Montreal show last weekend.
I mentioned how happy I was Mike was back on Hellboy. When Mike said, "You wanna see it?" an involuntary shudder of glee went up my spine. It must have been nearly the whole first issue; I was torn between wanting to soak up the beautiful art and the desire to avoid spoilers for myself. Looks really nice, though.
