After a mysterious events start occurring in places and vaults holding arcane and technologically advanced artifacts our venerable Witchfinder, sir Edward Grey, is called to investigate. Being in the same timeline/universe as main Hellboy story-line Witchfinder encounters creatures that are just starting to rise their ugly heads at the beginning of the XX century.

Due to this and repeating motif of secret societies and organizations working in shadows this story might seem as a repetition and constant recycling. In my opinion it is not the case, you just need to read stories at the normal pace. Binge reading the entire series will, like it is case with sword-and-sorcery and mystery novels in general when read non-stop without breaks, overwhelm the reader. And that would be a sad state of affairs because there is a lot in these booksto discover and connect the dots.

So read them slowly and with breaks between issues to truly enjoy them.

Art is good, again standard for the publisher. Approach is more comic-y than previous issue. Sir Edward Grey is more like himself (or at least he is same as he was in first issues) - more of a detective that will act and bring weapons and might into play when required. But with all of that he is not that rather dark persona fighting the underworld creatures in volume 4.

All in all recommended to all fans of mystery, horror and Hellboy universe in general. ( )
