as far as the eye can see

I can't believe how amazing the character design is for Hellboy II. I am not really a comic-book movie nerd. I really liked Hellboy, and I think Guillermo del Toro is the real deal (as is Mike Mignola!).

But this new movie has the best alien creatures I have seen since 1977, and I am as excited about seeing these weird things come to life as I was when I was 7 years old waiting to see Star Wars. Look at these guys!




Plus, check out the intersection of Gary Panter and Marvel Comics. I like to think of myself as more of a RAW guy than a superhero guy, but this meeting of the minds has Jack Kirby written all over it.

Thanks to Drawn! for writing this up.
