Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, artist Ben Stenback, and colorist Dave Stewart take a new trip to Hell in Koshchei in Hell. This new four issue mini series from Dark Horse Comics sees Koshchei content in Hell with his books and his wine.
When an old associate arrives and brings Koschei a critical task, he must take up his sword to defend Pandemonium from an ancient and powerful foe. Fans will remember Koshchei the Deathless from Hellboy: Darkness Calls when he was sent to kill Hellboy by Baba Yaga. Now fans of Koshchei can enjoy him as the main character. Stenbeck had this to say about it:
Koshchei would love to just sit back and read books and drink wine in his socks… …That’s the series Koshchei wants this to be. But that's not what he's getting. He has to leave the house. Then he's going to run into a lot of familiar faces and meet some new ones, and they are pretty much all asking for a fight. Poor old Koshchei, it's never easy.
The series sounds like a lot of fun for fans of Mignola’s work. The debut issue of Koshchei in Hell will be available on November 30.
