@arstechnica I mean, Hellboy the comic is good for two reasons: the pulpy, goofy fun of the stories and the colossal genius of Mignola's art at its peak. I don't think anyone is ever gonna capture the art style on film (though you could in theory) so a low budget camp approach that nails the first part seems like a fair approach
