Hellboy is definitely one of the more eye-catching superheroes out there. Even though he isn’t from Marvel or DC, people are still able to recognize him instantly.
With Hellboy: Assault on Castle Death, we will see the adventures of young Hellboy. The concept itself is quite interesting because we always get to see Hellboy as a big brute, but we never really got to see much of his childhood. This comic will give us a rare glimpse into the psyche of Hellboy and how he grew up to be who he is.
Let us explore the details of the upcoming comic and see what it’s all about.
Hellboy: Assault on Castle Death follows a much younger hero
Hellboy: Assault on Castle Death will give us a much younger Hellboy and his adventures. In an exclusive with SuperHeroHyped, writers Mike Mignola and Thomas Snielgoski revealed exclusive details about the comic. There is no doubt that the comic will be amazing.
When we first see Hellboy, he is adopted by Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, and then there is a time jump after which we directly see him as an adult. Hellboy: Assault on Castle Death aims to focus on his life right around the time when he was growing up.
With Hellboy being unequipped to fight the demons he will face, the story will might be full of dread and darkness. It will be a great coming-of-age story that will definitely help flesh out this popular character even more.
Talking about the story, Sniegoski said,
He also added,
Artist Craig Rousseau and colorist Chris O’Halloran are also a part of the team. The lettering is done by Clem Robbins and Matt Smith created the cover.
Official Description
Dark Horse comics has also released an official description,

So better get excited as Hellboy: Assault on Castle Death #1 releases on July 13, 2022.
