I really loved the Exorcist chapters。

Bprd is really gearing themselves up for something big， I think。 My proof is that nothing really major happened in this volume。And that's great。 Give me more character wrap up， please！ Gall Dennar is a massively interesting plot point for me， and with his new power boost it feels like the Bureau finally stand a chance against the Ogdru-Hem。 I also liked Rhodes getting her own spinoff of hauntings and exorcisms。 She seems like she'll be another very useful member of the team！ Bprd is really gearing themselves up for something big， I think。 My proof is that nothing really major happened in this volume。And that's great。 Give me more character wrap up， please！ Gall Dennar is a massively interesting plot point for me， and with his new power boost it feels like the Bureau finally stand a chance against the Ogdru-Hem。 I also liked Rhodes getting her own spinoff of hauntings and exorcisms。 She seems like she'll be another very useful member of the team！ 。。。more

More vignettes as the planet suffers the apocalypse。 There isn't any major plot movement。 Strong， character driven horror。 Lots of exorcisms。 There is a Hellboy appearance from 1949。 My favorite was Flesh and Stone which follows Howard the BPRD agent/caveman as he is coming to terms with a life from two worlds。 More vignettes as the planet suffers the apocalypse。 There isn't any major plot movement。 Strong， character driven horror。 Lots of exorcisms。 There is a Hellboy appearance from 1949。 My favorite was Flesh and Stone which follows Howard the BPRD agent/caveman as he is coming to terms with a life from two worlds。 。。。more

3。5The quality is the same as the previous volume， but it seems to be spreading in too many directions， that probably be explained later。 At this point， I do not really understand why we should follow the adventure of an exorcist， and how the hell people are living "normally" when it's freaking apocalypse outside。Having said that， BPRD is still one of the greatest and distinct comic books I've ever read。 3。5The quality is the same as the previous volume， but it seems to be spreading in too many directions， that probably be explained later。 At this point， I do not really understand why we should follow the adventure of an exorcist， and how the hell people are living "normally" when it's freaking apocalypse outside。Having said that， BPRD is still one of the greatest and distinct comic books I've ever read。 。。。more

I like my Apocalypse to be nice and dark and volume 4 starts off strong。 It was very telling seeing the most seasoned characters give up hope of survival as they continue to fight。 But， the final part was out of place with this vibe and didn’t fit in well with the narrative。

“Exorcism” and “The Exorcist” are my favorite stories in this collection， and some of my favorites of Hell on Earth。 New agent Ashley Strode seeks out Ota Benga （from B。P。R。D。 1947） for help exorcising a demon from a boy。 Then she goes to a small town where kids are disappearing， encountering another demon there。 These stories are well told， exciting， and a cool showcase for Strode， who has a good amount of character development here。 Another reason I like these stories is because I’m a big fan “Exorcism” and “The Exorcist” are my favorite stories in this collection， and some of my favorites of Hell on Earth。 New agent Ashley Strode seeks out Ota Benga （from B。P。R。D。 1947） for help exorcising a demon from a boy。 Then she goes to a small town where kids are disappearing， encountering another demon there。 These stories are well told， exciting， and a cool showcase for Strode， who has a good amount of character development here。 Another reason I like these stories is because I’m a big fan of The Exorcist movie。As for the rest of the book， “Grind” is another highlight。 It’s a darkly funny yarn about a man in a town experiencing semi-normality。 The other stories are decent， but they’re a bit convoluted。 Honestly， this collection does feel like Mignola and co。 are spinning wheels a bit until the finale， but there’s enough fun to be had that it’s not really a bother。 This stuff is definitely better than the Abe Sapien stories going at the same time。 。。。more

Поки найслабший том зі всієї серії。 Загалом， це більше колекція спін-оффів， які побічно торкаються основних подій （які， до слова， ніяким чином не розвиваються）。 Зі всього найбільш варта уваги арка "Екзорцизм"， де вводиться нова героїня Ешлі Строуд （хто пам'ятає， то вона колись вже з'являлась у серії як та， що захоплювалась талантом Ліз）， здатна переміщатись у астральний світ із палаючим в руках мечем。 Тепер маємо суттєвий перегин у жіночий бік （що добре）， адже чоловічі персонажі або вже померли， Поки найслабший том зі всієї серії。 Загалом， це більше колекція спін-оффів， які побічно торкаються основних подій （які， до слова， ніяким чином не розвиваються）。 Зі всього найбільш варта уваги арка "Екзорцизм"， де вводиться нова героїня Ешлі Строуд （хто пам'ятає， то вона колись вже з'являлась у серії як та， що захоплювалась талантом Ліз）， здатна переміщатись у астральний світ із палаючим в руках мечем。 Тепер маємо суттєвий перегин у жіночий бік （що добре）， адже чоловічі персонажі або вже померли， або ще не померли。 Є такі， які перебувають на межі вже довгий час。 Варто відзначити також роботу Джеймса Гаррена， який блискуче впорався із покладеними на нього завданнями。 Також з'являються нові монстри， до дизайну яких частково долучився Міньйола。 Надіюсь， що останній том буде значно цікавіший， бо поки серія суттєво буксує і розраховує лише на увагу й любов своєї фан-бази。 。。。more

I'm really loving this series but this volume is my least favorite so far。 That's not to say this isn't quality work， it's pretty good。 It just doesn't hold up compared to the epic scale of volume three， or the solid performances of volume one and two。 This volume feels like filler， or more likely setup for the final volume。 The exorcist story arc is the most compelling， though it didn't wow me。 I still have high hopes for volume five， though I'm a little sad this series is coming to a close。 I'm really loving this series but this volume is my least favorite so far。 That's not to say this isn't quality work， it's pretty good。 It just doesn't hold up compared to the epic scale of volume three， or the solid performances of volume one and two。 This volume feels like filler， or more likely setup for the final volume。 The exorcist story arc is the most compelling， though it didn't wow me。 I still have high hopes for volume five， though I'm a little sad this series is coming to a close。 。。。more

Love the Howards and Ashley Strode diversions in this volume。 The exorcism stories feel more like classic Hellboy， which is welcome amid all the giant， kaiju monster fights。

Another dead solid volume a the team is split up to take action against numerous events happening around the globe。 My favourite story was Exorcism/The Exorcist， a real novel depiction that stands alone but completely fits with the rest of the book。 I'm looking forward to continuing it。 Another dead solid volume a the team is split up to take action against numerous events happening around the globe。 My favourite story was Exorcism/The Exorcist， a real novel depiction that stands alone but completely fits with the rest of the book。 I'm looking forward to continuing it。 。。。more

By this point， BPRD has fully shifted to the more soap opera， illusion of change format that we often see with other comic books。 There a fewer Earth-changing developments than the early days， or even the previous volume。 That's not to say it's bad， but it is different。It helps that most of the stories here are strong and there's an outstanding roster of artists across the omnibus， highlighted by James Harren's always incredible work。 You can see Arcudi and Harren starting to work out some proto By this point， BPRD has fully shifted to the more soap opera， illusion of change format that we often see with other comic books。 There a fewer Earth-changing developments than the early days， or even the previous volume。 That's not to say it's bad， but it is different。It helps that most of the stories here are strong and there's an outstanding roster of artists across the omnibus， highlighted by James Harren's always incredible work。 You can see Arcudi and Harren starting to work out some proto Rumble ideas and I really loved it。It's a good volume and there's plenty of bang for your buck if you're a BPRD fan。 There's some heavier emphasis on character work over grand plot developments and it makes for a pretty interesting BPRD omnibus。 。。。more

Overall， the Hell of Earth series seems to be spinning its wheels， milking out every dollar it can before finishing this overall arc in the story。 That being said， these smaller stories are still pretty great。 I like that they focus on more of the unsung members of the BPRD and how they themselves are evolving。 Given that half the world seems to be mutating into monsters， it makes sense that the BPRD would go to extreme measures to combat this。 So seeing a member become an exorcist or another me Overall， the Hell of Earth series seems to be spinning its wheels， milking out every dollar it can before finishing this overall arc in the story。 That being said， these smaller stories are still pretty great。 I like that they focus on more of the unsung members of the BPRD and how they themselves are evolving。 Given that half the world seems to be mutating into monsters， it makes sense that the BPRD would go to extreme measures to combat this。 So seeing a member become an exorcist or another member devolving into a caveman after touching an ancient weapon make a kind of sense。 I'm looking forward to picking up the closing volume of this story next。 。。。more

Not sure why， but I absolutely loved this volume a bit more than the others。 Somehow the change brought forth by plots revolving around some new amazing characters like Gall Dennar， Enos & Ashley Strode felt like a breath of fresh air。 Both Gall & Ashley could use their own spin off series （if they're not already in the works ie） I'll be moving onto Abe Sapien Dark & Terrible Vol 2 and I am excited to learn how Hell on Earth arc will end。 Not sure why， but I absolutely loved this volume a bit more than the others。 Somehow the change brought forth by plots revolving around some new amazing characters like Gall Dennar， Enos & Ashley Strode felt like a breath of fresh air。 Both Gall & Ashley could use their own spin off series （if they're not already in the works ie） I'll be moving onto Abe Sapien Dark & Terrible Vol 2 and I am excited to learn how Hell on Earth arc will end。 。。。more

Grind is probably one of the best stories in the Hell on Earth arc， and James Harren's art in Flesh and Stone is as kinetic and stunning as ever。 Last， but not least， Ashley Strode！ She's a fun character， I wish there was more about her to give her more backstory and personality。 Grind is probably one of the best stories in the Hell on Earth arc， and James Harren's art in Flesh and Stone is as kinetic and stunning as ever。 Last， but not least， Ashley Strode！ She's a fun character， I wish there was more about her to give her more backstory and personality。 。。。more

It's a bit weird to admit it but this is probably the volume where I can honestly say I didn't read this missing Hellboy and Abe and actually just plain liked the characters of BPRD and the hell world they live in。I've kind of taken to reading BPRD as something that's Hellboy without Hellboy but this volume finally sold me on Ashley and Howard。 Johann has always been good but pretty much every other character has felt pretty stale until now。They Ashley stories are legitimately creepy， actually r It's a bit weird to admit it but this is probably the volume where I can honestly say I didn't read this missing Hellboy and Abe and actually just plain liked the characters of BPRD and the hell world they live in。I've kind of taken to reading BPRD as something that's Hellboy without Hellboy but this volume finally sold me on Ashley and Howard。 Johann has always been good but pretty much every other character has felt pretty stale until now。They Ashley stories are legitimately creepy， actually reminded me of some vintage Hellboy horror。 The Howard stories are genuinely cool， and the action reminded me of how good action looks in Mignola style art。 BPRD has felt kind of like a slog。 It's been entertaining enough but the past two volumes have been actually pretty good but I'd like to see one of these Mignolaverse stories end eventually。 Dark Horse couldn't possibly just keep pushing out books and putting Mignola's name on them and printing money， could they？ 。。。more
