Mike Mignola and Giuseppe Manunta are teaming up for a brand-new Hellboy one-shot, Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: Professor Harvey is Gone. The issue from Dark Horse Comics marks the English language debut of Manunta, and is colored by Manunta with letters by Clem Robins.
“I’m a big fan of Giuseppe’s work so I was thrilled when he told me he wanted to do a Hellboy story—The only problem was that I had sort of (finally) run out of Hellboy stories,” said Mignola via press release. ”My head is so much in my new LANDS UNKNOWN series now that for a while I was really drawing a blank. Then I remembered a plot I had given to Chris Golden a while back. He wrote it up as a Hellboy story for Weird Tales magazine (THE CITY IN THE SEA—Weird Tales issue 367) but that was an unillustrated prose story and there were (I thought) some terrific visuals in that story so I thought Giuseppe would be a terrific artist to put those on paper. So I reworked that original story and idea and turned it over to Giuseppe to work his magic.”
Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: Professor Harvey Is Gone hits stores on August 27, 2025. You can check out two covers and the synopsis, below.
When a paranoid antiquities professor goes missing, Hellboy and the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense leap into action, but their search takes a dangerous turn as whoever was after the professor sets their sights on Hellboy. This thrilling one-shot features all of the charm and excitement of a classic Hellboy adventure and introduces audiences to Manunta’s breathtaking, painterly artwork.
