This could be a book to hook new readers on Hellboy in general. It's set when Hellboy is still very young, and you don't really need much in the way of background. The art and writing are both good enough to draw the reader in, and the inspirations of Pinocchio and Something Wicked This Way Comes are clear throughout. The imagery is just perfect for the story. But it is very short. Maybe one day, these wee little Hellboy graphic novels will get collected into a larger trade. That would be far more satisfying.
