This October, Dark Horse will publish a five-issue comic book series from Mike Mignola, novelist Christopher Golden, artist Matt Smith, colorist Chris O’Halloran, and letterer Clem Robins. The love in question? Dr. Anastasia Bransfield first appeared as Hellboy’s ex in Christopher Golden’s novel Hellboy: The Lost Army. After talking it over with Mike Mignola, they decided to make it canon.
Here’s the official synopsis:
In the series’ opening tale, the two-part Goblin Night, Hellboy has been assigned to protect a shipment of occult artifacts from a gang of thieving goblins. The artifacts are being transported by train to the British Museum by archaeologist Anastasia Bransfield, and she’s not going to let them go without a fight! Rather than stay behind, she teams up with Hellboy to chase the light-fingered fey through the British countryside and into . . . a local punk show?
