Featuring new stories from “Hellboy” and “Stranger Things”

Plan ahead to visit a local comic shop on Saturday, May 4, 2024 for Free Comic Book Day! Dark Horse Comics is pleased to share the Free Comic Book Day Gold issue, which will feature two original stories from the worlds of Hellboy and Stranger Things. The cover for the issue features new artwork by comics legends Mike Mignola and Dave Stewart.

In Hellboy “The Fortune Teller,” a murder investigation leads to a mysterious Romanian fortune teller who is way too interested in Hellboy’s past and future.

Then, in Stranger Things, “Deliver Me from Evil,” Argyle and Jonathan swap fantastical and scary tales as they make one last pizza delivery for the night.

The Hellboy short story is written by Mike Mignola (Hellboy), illustrated by Márk László (Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: Time is a River), colored by Dave Stewart (Giant Robot Hellboy), and lettered by Clem Robins (Giant Robot Hellboy). The Stranger Things short story is written by Derek Fridolfs (Tales of The Vampires), illustrated and colored by Jonathan Case (Green River Killer), and lettered by Nate Piekos (Stranger Things and Dungeons & Dragons).
