So had to repost this because the original upload was published in 360p as the highest format. Didn't want that :P, so here it is in crisp HD.

I think you should do more videos like this I just started Hellboy and I came here to watch the video for the second time to make sure I was reading in the right order. Maybe you can even do some videos with the omnibros crew ( I'm sure Ryley would love to do an x-men reading order)

[@t.l3846]

Yo does anyone know where the bprd the devil you know fit in?

[@wookie1123ify]

can you put the order in the dispcription

[@jD304304]

this was so incredibly helpful! really great job, and thank you for all the work!

[@rickykilmer1331]

Great video and explained well. Mignola's Hellbound/BPRD Universe is hella cool and can seem overwhelming for those who are just coming into it. Where to start or who's who and when & where. This video boils a lot down into concise digestible sections. And I agree with the library edition choice as well. And lastly Thank you Mike Mignola for bring us one of the coolest and most original universe out there. Along with (for my money anyways) INVINCIBLE. Another favorite of mine.

[@neroangelus469]

So if I follow right it's like this, an I would like to make an info graphic for this, just clear with me that I got the order right first. HELLBOY ORDER Hellboy (main) Seed of Destruction Hellboy (main) Wake the Devil Hellboy (main) The Chain Coffin Hellboy (main) The Right Hand of Doom Hellboy (main) The Conqueror Worm Hellboy (main) Strange Places BPRD - Plague of Frogs (1, 2, 3, 4) BPRD 1946-1948 BPRD Vampire BPRD Hell on Earth (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) Abe Sapien (1, 2, 3) Witchfinder (1, 2, 3) BPRD Hell on Earth (8, 9, 10, 11) Sledgehammer 44 BPRD Hell on Earth (12, 13) Abe Sapien (4, 5, 6, 7) Frankenstein Underground Hellboy and the BPRD 1952 Hellboy The Midnight Circus Hellboy (main) The Crooked Man & The Troll Witch Hellboy (main) Darkness Calls Hellboy (main) The Wild Hunt Hellboy (main) The Storm and the Fury Hellboy (main) The Bride of Hell Hellboy in Hell Lobster Johnson (read whenever, while canon it takes place before Hellboy as a pulp action hero homage)

[@dan__reed__8926]

A great guide to Hellboy.👏👏 I love all of your hellboy videos, you really know your stuff

[@yol4203]

Mission accepted, hold my reading glasses.

[@Swarley133]

Great video, Hardcover. This is a series I've really wanted to jump into. And with the Comixology Darkhorse sale right now, I juuuust might have to jump in.

[@juancarlosecheverria1129]

Thanks for the guide on Hellboy. I've actually been wanting to read Hellboy for a while, but I wasn't sure where to start, so thank you. Also great video

[@Evangelion0189]

A great video, and fantastic Hellboy (obviously)! Looking forward to seeing new videos of yours, man!

[@brockthompson5245]

Great recommendation! It's amazing that Mignola is able to write such expansive stories simultaneously.

[@markash6514]

Aaaaaand now I need everything you just mentioned. Thanks 😁

[@danielfishburn7042]

“How much hell boy is there” “Yes”

[@Alan123456aA]

Thanks again this really was helpful I've never really gotten into comic books not because there bad or anything just never found a series worth getting into. As this is one that's caught my eye. So thanks again for this awesome guide!!! (Makes it alot less intimating)

[@alexsackman5122]

Thanks, you really help me with this huge Hellboy universe!🤘👌🍷

[@TheGidef]

Amazing video and production quality, keep it up!

[@TheRebelGM56]

I am just getting in to the Hellboy comics and the wider universe. This video is really useful!

[@vampazilla2622]

This was a well done explanation about the Hellboy universe. I am a big fan of Mike Mignola's graphic novels.

[@LuchaGangsta]

2nd time watching the video to make sure of the order. I know what im asking for either my bday which is Halloween or for Christmas. Can't wait and I will be buying same versions you have if possible. Amazon seems to have most if not all.

[@MartinBuenoNinja]

Extra thumbs up for wearing that T-shirt . Oss !!!

[@milomanning9434]

Awesome video mate, appreciate it.

[@dodgeprince7183]

Awesome!!! This really helped a lot!!! Are there any other Hellboy related comics that have come out since this video that I should read? And if so, what order do you think I should read them in? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This helped more than you can imagine

[@deathsssx]

thank you so much for this! i wish id seen it a year ago i love HB but have so much trouble staying up to date with the universe!

[@puddin2121]

'ppreciate it. all those covers go so hard

[@jeremyg371]

Thx for the video and have a great day.

[@FablesOutofSpace]

Wow thanks to you man now I know that I have read up to volume 3...Hellboy has a very special pleace in my heart and I want the movie to be soo good!

[@andakage16]

Thanx for the direction.

[@flickrfade]

Super useful. Thanks man.

[@FedELKryptonian]

Thanks for the guide on Hellboy!

[@joeskywalker4296]

Good video. I suggested reading Lobster Johnson vol 1 before reading sledgehammer 44 because the suit is introduced in that volume.

[@alexisg7568]

Dude your videos are my drug

[@river7714]

I'm in on the Hellboy universe thank you!

[@MegaGoddo]

Nice video it has really helped me out!! Can you find a list online somewhere telling you when the next books are coming out?

[@souparnoghosh4740]

Thanx a lot. I finished hellboy till hell. Nd then i started abe sapien right off. It was nice as an individual story but i got confused with the continuity of th timeline. Thanx a lot. Mignolaverse is so huge. Got plenty of reads for a few yrs.

[@gobbieribbons]

Really helpful thanks

[@souparnoghosh4740]

Theres two new books on koschei and rasputin. U cn read tht too after finishing hellboy in hell

[@atomicplumber88]

My wife is going to lose her shit when I purchase all the library editions.

[@timothyholley2546]

Just got into comics a couple weeks ago and I've been watching your videos to know where to start. I didn't know you were a Jiu Jitsu guy! How long have you been at it?

[@MateuszTTT]

Nice Gracie Barra t-shirt OSS!

[@bitfreakazoid]

Oh wow. Really glad I picked up B.P.R.D. volume 3 and 4 back in 2012.

[@BlackLaval]

Without a doubt the most ambitious and best comics horror universe. And some of these are a lasting masterpieces of the 9th art. If I had to pick a favorite it would probably be The Chained Coffin.

[@weilien86]

Hey Hardcover Review, I purchased all the BPRD Hell on Earth books from Amazon after watching your video. I've been a long-time fan of Hellboy and BPRD, but I just never got around to reading the Hell on Earth series. Four volumes in, though, and I've been slightly disappointed. The art remains top-notch, but the story is not grabbing me the way Hellboy and BPRD did. Just wondering if you're ever going to review these arcs in separate videos? If no, what are your opinions on BPRD Hell on Earth as a series? I'd love to hear. Big fan from Singapore. Keep up the good work. :)

[@deangray5950]

thank you heaps man, everyone just over explains and confuses me, this helped heaps :) Any chance you could do the same for Daredevil and The Punisher as well?

[@Beastow33]

Do you have a dr. Strange video? You should do one with the upcoming omnibus release. Great vid as always

[@edward2962]

cool video!

[@rudigerkipferl4479]

Thank you for your great video. What I'm wondering is how the new omnibus editions of Hellboy clue in - for example Hellboy Omnibus 2 includes a story called Bprd being human - so there seems to be a chronological approach? I managed to get Library 1-3 for a good price but jumped to buying omnibus 3 instead of library 5-6... And those Bprd HCs are really hard to find...

[@Quentinisgod]

Can you do an updated version with the new library book and new omnibus coming soon included?

[@fuckyoutubecomments7530]

Crisp man 👌

[@dukedrage7465]

Would I be better off getting the Hellboy Volume 1 Library Ed. versus the trade paperbacks? Really considering picking up this series. Thanks, great video.

[@Kerskjee]

Could you do one of these for the sandman universe? when do i read lucifer, deadboy and all the other sandman stuff?

[@boycrunch2001]

some parts in this video is you spoiling us XD

[@joshmiller1566]

Wow I didn’t realize there was so much going on with the Hellboy novels

[@JM-qh6zb]

Can you put a list of the order in the description or something?

[@gutsonthemic5261]

this is a must read

[@MaulSlasher]

Nice video! if you stop reading Hellboy at Conqueror Worm, where do you continue his stuff till Hellboy in Hell?

[@teacomics]

what do you think of the order in the new Hellboy omnibus and the short stories omnibus?

[@professor_peculiar619]

Nice shirt man how long u been training?😊

[@CorySkelton]

I just received the first two BPRDs Plague of Frogs, and now I just ordered the first couple trades of Hellboy since you make me a bit nervous to start BPRD first. After a couple Hellboys would I be totally lost if I just went ahead with BPRD or started reading them concurrently?

[@teddysworldinsane7382]

Could you make a current list continuing after this?

[@aaronhill5915]

Props to the Black Science hardcover on the shelf

[@Kamenriderbuild964]

@Comics Guide101 hi i was going to get the hellboy Omnibus comics on amazon would reading them the way you said here work the same way

[@ElArlequin]

Dude, it definitely sounds like you know what you are talking about! :D Correct me if I am wrong, I bought the Library Editions (volumen 1 to 6)... having that, the only thing I am missing from the MAIN series are: INTO THE SILENT SEA and THE MIDNIGHT CIRCUS, right? These two are not included in the Library Editions. Am I correct? Thanks!

[@gianluca6034]

Wow, I'm only up to volume 4 of Hellboy... Got a lot of catching up to do :P

[@joshualong6900]

I just bought Hell on Earth hardcovers vol 1-3 and Abe Sapien hardcovers vol 2-3 and I only need Hellboy in Hell Library edition to complete that set

[@dacollector9392]

Dang that’s a bunch of books to get.

[@mr.1up932]

Is it better to own the Library editions (1-6 + Hellboy in Hell) rather than the Omnibus editions (1-4 + Short Stories)? Like will I miss out on stuff if i don't buy the Library? I love you videos btw, keep being awesome!!

[@burntdice2810]

You won’t miss anything, but the library editions are much nicer imo

[@i69trucknuttz]

I got all the library editions except vol 5 it's not even on Amazon hope it's not too late

[@lexavi80]

I'm dizzy now! At the time of my comment, there's a 50% sale in comixology for all Dark Horse collections. I want to give Hellboy and BPRD a chance, but I don't know what to get nor what order to read.

[@stevestevenson2994]

Anyone know what is up with ‘Wake The Devil’ paperbacks? I have looked online everywhere for it but everyone has it as unavailable.

[@ous1991]

I just picked up my first comic and it was Hellboy The Wild Hunt. Will I be able to read this without ever reading the earlier versions?

[@7.7.7_.7..7._]

Dear comic guide! Could you please give me a complete reading order for the guardians of the galaxy? With all tie ins and events. Please do it i can not find a proper list anywere...

[@petergreen1994]

Hey, hardcover do you think they will make a hardcover series for Hell on Earth and Abe?

[@michealdarnell2623]

You should make an update to this lol. I've recently gotten into Hellboy. I've read the whole main series and have noticed more side stuff since this video was made 3 years ago.

[@forsakenV12]

I am in the same boat as Micheal. Please update the reading list. Thanks 😁

[@gutsonthemic5261]

10/10!

[@glassman8697]

I love hellboy!

[@verginiyaboyadzieva2977]

Will I be lost if I start with BPRD? I mean, I have seen the movies and I'll probably understand most of it. I'm asking, because I just got BPRD and I really want to read it, although I haven't read Hellboy.

[@dark3rthanshadows]

one tip , when u start reading a comic/books of something u saw first as a movie, toally ignore the movie

[@leonardjenkins8968]

Where did you get the bookshelf!?

[@FateHasWritersBlock]

I know this is an old video, but would you recommend getting the new Hellboy Omnibuses that are coming out as a cheaper alternative to the library editions to start reading the series and then branch into BPRD etc?

[@turtleanton6539]

Good Q

[@jordanthomas4379]

I was able to purchase all 6 of the HELLBOY libraries, but i was not so lucky with the b.p.r.d. plague of frogs hardcovers, so i had to get them in softcover format, I wish that i had of got to them sooner.

[@RogueDragon05]

You got the stories that the important thing, the packaging is just details. Even if they are TPB they still look sweet and are proably a touch lighter as well.

[@jordanthomas4379]

RogueDragon05 thats true, but now after i have read them, and loved them so much, i just felt that the stories deserved the most respect by having them in the best possible presentation.

[@irishknight6893]

so when do u read hellboy LE 4-6?? between all these

[@ReelBigCohen]

Can you make a text version?

[@tomoliver2112]

ReelBigCohen just listen you lazy bastard

[@JakeTheMuss10454]

HELLBOY AND BALTIMORE...DOPE!

[@AnnoyingAshleyTV]

Thank you hardcover Im gonna try jump into it soon this helped your knowledge on Hellboy is epic. If you get chance check my first video or so I have just uploaded on my channel see how it is.

[@joshualong6900]

I miss your videos dude

[@Theaaronf1927]

That vampire bprd is out of print now :/

[@Saint_Punk]

Отличная коллекция! Жду, когда XL media издаст на русском.

[@Chrisp1811]

Will BPRD ever get a Library?

[@ReaperXC]

Do you have a written document mister?

[@333angeleyes]

Hi, I'm following your reading order and I am now up to volume 7 but I noticed that at the end of 6 the story was started to get dark/depressing/sad... And I don't want to read that type of story (I can find sad in reality I use books to escapee reality)... So my question to you is: WHEN SHOULD I STOP READING??? I want to stop before the story gets even sadder

[@nyallleary1643]

its a dark series dude it has constant ups and downs, the conclusion is very satisfying though, i think i remember there being some really happy moment in wild hunt.

[@teenytv5194]

Does Hellboy in hell fit into this?

[@mingfaiyuen]

are there any hardcovers ever published for the BPRD hell on earth? I got all 4 hardcovers for the BPRD and the 6 volumes of hellboy library, so I want to get hell on earth to complete my collection.

[@middenway]

They'll start being published in 2017.

[@RogueDragon05]

And probably be finished in 2030.... grumbles at having to wait.

[@flyboyarch6776]

So hellboy doesn’t come back

[@mrmann44]

What! No Baltimore???

[@SmoStyle]

OSS!!! BJJ

[@ReaperXC]

Youre looking really good in this video. Need a better angle of yourself in the omnibros live streams.

[@felipepernambuco7018]

i read comics online

[@PauloRCS2000]

Hi HR! Do you know if this Hellboy/BPRD saga is really ending?

[@HardcoverReviews]

Hellboy is for now. B.P.R.D. though is still going on with no definite end stated.

[@spikelj]

I read somewhere that the Hell on Earth is the second to last cycle of BPRD. One more and then they're done...Maybe.

[@sugarcubeofsalt8645]
