Author Cemetery Dance OnlinePosted on Categories Interviews, The Comic Vault3 Comments on Christopher Golden on Hellboy and his Assortment of Horrors
Obviously, there’s no name more synonymous with the character of Hellboy than that of creator Mike Mignola. However, Christopher Golden runs a close second.
