Dark Horse announces list of Hellboy Day participating retailers

Ah Hellboy Day, that traditional day of the year that families gather to read the comics of Mike Mignola and give thanks for Big Red himself, Hellboy.

Something about that top line doesn’t seem right… anyway, Dark Horse Comics, the ancestral home of Hellboy, has officially announced the list of retailers that will be taking part in the celebration of all things Hellboy. The day, March 22nd, will be marked with special events and giveaways across the US and should be a general great time for fans and a great time for non-fans too as they’ll be able to have a look at the popular universe created by Mignola for free.

There will be a bunch of giveaways set for the day, but the lynchpin is a special sampler comic with stories featuring a pair of classic Mignola tales titled ‘The Ghoul’ and ‘Another Day at the Office’. If you think this comic is just a couple of reprints though, you’ve got another thing coming because it’ll also come stocked with two more stories by Mignola, Fábio Moon, and R. Sikoryak. Four big stories from the Mignola-verse for zero dollars. Pretty sharp deal for just walking into your local comics shop.

And speaking of those, here’s your list of participating retailers from across the world, starting with the biggest- an appearance by Mignola himself:
