The bold artistic imagination of Mike Mignola's comic Hellboy draws on Western beliefs surrounding heroes and villains that are shaped by centuries of storytelling, theology, and popular culture. The "Christ/Antichrist complex" is at the core of Western apocalyptic imagination, offering a clear divide between good and evil and highlighting the evolving dynamics of heroism and villainy. Throughout history, violent heroes and violent villains have been presented as paired opposites, entwined in a way that frames the violence of the "good guys" as natural, noble, and necessary. Through the examination of how messianic and heroic figures have relied on displays of power that might otherwise be perceived as excessive, vulgar, or villainous, this volume reveals how deeply ingrained these narrative traditions are and how they inform the stubbornly mysterious but artistically coherent world of Hellboy and its adaptations. Utilizing multiple disciplines, it encourages a more critical, historically grounded understanding, reminding readers that it is always worth questioning the stories that justify violence and moral certainty.

A story that began in the first issue of Hellboy concludes with the B.P.R.D. team set to permanently wipe out the subterranean colony of frog monsters that have been a story-driving plague. With Memnan Saa dead, agents Liz and Abe take on the powerful King of Fear—who ultimately reveals that it is, in fact, the B.P.R.D. members themselves who will lead the world to apocalypse, not the supernatural monsters, demons, or colossal squidbots. • Collects B.P.R.D.: King of Fear issues #1-#5.
