Hellboy Reading Order: Where to Start With Hellboy Comics & BPRD

Hellboy’s great. I never expected to think that, but if you haven’t given Hellboy comics a shot, you’re missing out on one of the absolute best comic book universes out there.

I first heard of Hellboy through the 2000’s feature film with mightily low expectations. Yet behind the silly name, there was an excellent character, sharp humor, and clever action.

The comics bring all of that and so much more, as the Hellboy universe has expanded over the years. You can check out the full Hellboy reading order below.
