The book is entirely based on Abe Sapien’s life which is very interesting and mysterious. The plot has an emotional touch where Abe is trying to find his place in this cruel world. Some thinks he is a monster and some just another being. A very different kind of comic with attractive graphics. 4 stars for the book and thanks to Edelweiss and Dark Horse Books for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book. I really tried to get into this, I love the world of Hellboy, but I just didn't care about this at all. I felt like I had jumped into the middle of a series (which I guess I kind of did, although this is labeled Volume 1. Help a reader out here) and couldn't catch up. Also, I had a difficult time following the action sequences. Nice artwork, though. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

On the run from the B.P.R.D., a newly mutated Abe Sapien--more inhuman than before--travels across a United States transformed and overrun by monsters. Abe's search for the truth about himself--or his race away from his fate--mirrors the quest of an ancient necromancer to seize control of a world literally going to hell. This deluxe hardcover edition collects Abe Sapien volumes 3-5 (the beginning of the Dark and Terrible story), plus an expanded sketchbook section. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

During his wanderings through Texas, Arizona and Mexico Abe comes across signs of eroding human society, various cults and appearances of monsters, healers, witches and warlocks - some with the noble intentions, some not and others totally undecipherable. After rescuing girl named Grace from rather bizarre imprisonment Abe decides to stay with her and see where will the road take him next.
And in yet another parallel path we follow third "pilgrim" in these troubling times - necromancer and warlock Gustav Strobl in his quest to regain his position among the daemons of the deep (hell is suddenly very silent and Strobl cannot use it as a source of power) and finally obtain the mysterious power that Abe might be very part of.
Interesting collection of stories with wonderful art. Entire collection is more introspective and lethargic - almost all humans Abe comes across are more or less OK with their fate and this fatalistic view of the world only shows how deep did the society fall when confronted with unimaginable horrors from the deep.
Recommended for fans of horror and Hellboy's universe. ( )
