With a new Hellboy movie on the way, now is a great time to revisit Mike Mignola's comic book universe, which features entries from a wide range of immensely imaginative artists and authors, including this year's standalone graphic novel Into the Silent Sea, co-written by Gary Gianni. Gianni's own Monstermen and Other Scary Stories, which spun out of early Hellboy issues, returns to bookstores on August 22nd from Dark Horse, and to celebrate the collection's re-release, we've been provided with a set of preview pages to share with Daily Dead readers.
"Gary Gianni created one of the strangest occult detective teams in comics history: millionaire filmmaker Lawrence St. George and his associate, Benedict, of the venerable guild of Corpus Monstrum. They navigate a peculiar and deadly world plagued by squid pirates, zombie cowboys, abominable snowmen, mustachioed skulls, and fat, flying demons.

The demon with a good heart heads out on the open water this spring in Hellboy: Into the Silent Sea. To celebrate the graphic novel's April 19th release in comic book shops (followed by a May 2nd release in bookstores), Daily Dead was honored to catch up with artist Gary Gianni for our latest Q&A feature to discuss collaborating with Mike Mignola on Into the Silent Sea, what readers can expect from the unique Hellboy story, an upcoming release that should excite Prince Valiant fans, and much more.
Thanks for taking the time to answer some questions for us, Gary. How did you initially get involved with Hellboy: Into the Silent Sea?
Gary Gianni: Mike and I have spent 20 years discussing comics, movies and books. The notion of working on a comic together just sort of fell in place naturally.
What was it like working with Mike Mignola on this story?...

Dark Horse Comics' Hellboy in Hell may have concluded its run, but there are still many adventures ahead for the beloved (and feared) demon. This week marks the release of Hellboy in Hell: The Death Card Volume 2, and in the future, readers will be treated to several epic comic book stories within Mike Mignola's immersive universe, including Hellboy: Into the Silent Sea, a new graphic novel that is teased in our exclusive set of preview pages ahead of the story's release next year.
In addition to Hellboy: Into the Silent Sea, 2017 will also see the release of The Visitor: How and Why He Stayed, a new comic book series featuring Hellboy and enigmatic aliens (that alone should have readers anxiously awaiting February's arrival).
