I'd disagree heavily. Del Toro's adaptation strayed severely from the comics even down to the Hellboy on screen being very dissimilar in terms of personality to the Hellboy of the comics. While I love those movies, I see them more as Hellboy fanfilms by Del Toro than actual adaptations of Mignola's work. I also wouldn't call them underrated as they are 2 of the most popular comic book films ever made outside of the big 2 companies.
And now you can play Hellboy and the BPRD agents as well in Mantic's just released Hellboy: The Board Game! Adventuring through ruins, battling tons of frogmen and nazi miniatures, and bosses while drooling over Mignola's beautiful artwork on the cards. If you're a true Hellboy fan, you need this game.
A lot of people talk about Hellboy as if they know the character but miss hard! This guy...on the other hand seems to at least try to understand the character and the stories, but even better...he seems like he tried to understand WHY we love him! So koodos
Holy crap that was a lot more than I thought I would get but definitely not disappointed when it comes to hellboy lore. Also I got to admit my favorite part of the video was the pumpkin Pete jacket.
The short story where Stalin meets the Baba Yaga was brillant and I wish that aspect had been explored to greater extent. Nazis are appropriate targets for exploring evil vs good but I'd like to see more exploration of what the Soviets Dark Gods could have done in this universe.
a video like this about the BPRD Hellboy spinoff series would be crazyyy! love the video
Del Toro's Hellboy series is top 5 underrated comic book adaptations 💯

@@DaveControlLive Yep, cause a lot of stuff went down in media that needs covering

Hellboy was my childhood, im torn on whether the new one will be as good as the others were. So far I'm not sold on how the new Hellboy looks
What did you think about it?
Azzael (hellboy’s father) is pronounced AZ- EYE-EL
In the Hellboy 2004 movie, I find that the Ogdru Jahad were looking like giant tentacled Alien creatures which are evil and cruel.
Broom. It’s pronounced broom spelled Bruttenholm but pronounced Broom
Pancakes. Just go read the story.
