About the AuthorMIKE MIGNOLA's fascination with ghosts and monsters began at an early age; reading
Dracula at age twelve introduced him to Victorian literature and folklore, from which he has never recovered. Starting in 1982 as a bad inker for Marvel Comics, he evolved into a not-so-bad artist. By the late 1980s, he'd begun to develop his unique graphic style, with mainstream projects like
Cosmic Odyssey and
Batman: Gotham by Gaslight. In 1994, he published the first
Hellboy series through Dark Horse, leading to over two decades of comics spinoffs, prose books, animated films, and live-action films. He worked on Francis Ford Coppola's film
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), Disney's
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001), and with director Guillermo del Toro on
Blade II (2002)
, Hellboy (2004), and
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008). A new
Hellboy film by Neil Marshall is in the works. Mike's books have earned numerous awards and are published in many countries. He lives in Southern California with his wife, daughter, and cat.
CHRIS ROBERSON is the co-creator of
iZOMBIE (with Mike Allred) and
EDISON REX (with Dennis Culver), and the co-writer of
HELLBOY AND THE B.P.R.D and other titles set in the world of Mike Mignola's Hellboy. In addition to his numerous comics projects, he has written more than a dozen novels and three dozen short stories.
