The Torch of Liberty was a John Byrne character who had his own comic. Some of the titles from the DH Legends imprint were originally planned to share the same universe, hence the Hellboy and Abe appearances in The Next Men. It was scrapped shortly after and both Mike and John admitted it was a bad idea from the get go. I suppose The Lobster will replace the Torch in the remake.
Whaaaa??? That's mind blowing! Great insight Filip- we'll be sure to note this in future Hellboy coverage.
@@ImperiusRex Found Mike's quote from last year's interview, I think:
_"Had I created Lobster Johnson [then], I would’ve used Lobster Johnson in that opening sequence in Hellboy, but I hadn’t thought of him yet. I thought it was cool to have one superhero guy - kind of a throwback to my Marvel Comics stuff, little World War II Captain America hanging out with GI’s. I always wanted to have that. And since John had created this Captain America-ish character, I thought, “Well, this is just perfect.” But now, I never want to go back and take it out, and John never told me to take it out. We acknowledge it’s there, but we just don’t talk about it too much.
"_
And I made a mistake. The Torch only had a one-shot special, and before that he had appeared in backups for Byrne's "Danger Unlimited".
Also, thanks for revisiting Hellboy and the Mignolaverse.
@@ImperiusRex There's a bunch about it on the Hellboy Wiki: hellboy.fandom.com/wiki/The_Torch_of_Liberty
My first introduction to Hellboy was when I was in 3rd grade when the first movie came out. 3rd grade was my first year of public school after leaving Catholic school. I heard my friend ask, "Have you seen Hellboy?" And the title alone struck fear in my single-digit-aged, fresh-outta-Catholic-school spine. My morbid curiosity outweighed my Christian fears and I got super into it. Got me into both Del Toro and Mignola, both of which are still favorites of mine to this day.
Johnny Athey love it! I was in high school when it came out. I remember a Christian youth group that went to see it and told me they didn’t care for it. I told them they most likely went in with pretty biased opinions. He agreed.
We can never have enough Hellboy content! Very excited!
Wolves of St. August is my favorite Hellboy story...
I read Wake the Devil before Seeds of Destruction and the stark difference hit me like a mack truck that I almost couldnt continue. But I remembered it was John Byrne and he had a wordy style and this was the first real Hellboy story where nothing was established yet.
You guys hit it in the head when you described how different it was to when Mignola took full control of HB.
The way Broom is done in the comics is similar to Comedian from Watchmen in the sense that they become more fleshed out after their deaths begin the story.
Very true. Especially in the early prequel arcs of BPRD.
Easily one of my favorite fictional characters from comics and favorite runs
Just started reading Hellboy last year and can't get enough of it! I'll be watching every episode of this series for sure. Definitely cover BPRD, after getting through Hellboy.
Boy, Hellboy again? I feel spoiled, but happy.
Hellboy is one of those comics that everyone tells me is good and I’m all like ‘yeah yeah, I’m sure its great.’ But now I’ve seen this I may finally give it a shot. Great video as always.
Oh well this was a HELL of a surprise......
You may look for an apology. You will not receive one.
Tried to read Hellboy couple of months ago, I think I stopped at BPRD Plague of Frogs and then jumped to Kochei and Hellboy in Hell, cause I was always falling asleep.
Russell Garifulla kochei is one of the only Mignola titles I’ve yet to read...
This is great I just started reading Hellboy and I love your long discussion videos about a series, especially when you guys delve into the background tidbits of knowledge and the history of the characters/writers. Love watching you guys, please keep it up!
Glad to have to onboard Mr. W. Lots of great Hellboy lore to enjoy!
Oh boy. Now that's a surprise I like to see
Yes!!!!
I found your channel a couple of days ago when I watch your Summer of Invincible videos and I subscribed instantly.
Thanks for joining us on this magical journey!
That intro you created is dope. I can't imagine how much time you put into that. It looks great though. Good job!
Hellboy and BPRD are my favorite books because you have a group of good guys deal with (read: kick the ass of) all of the weird and scary stuff we tell around a campfire.
I found you guys last summer while researching Hellboy for a drawing, I went "what's this...?!" Subscribed right away. Had nothing to do with drawing but man do y'all know how to make comics so much fun. A laid back atmosphere with friends and it's silly and funny and probably RUclips's best kept secret. You guys have a winning formula and as word continues to get out everyone else will know what I stumbled across accidentally. Good job!
Super kind words! Thanks fella!
I would love to se you guys go over the plague of Frogs!
Awesome!
So excited for this, guys. Nothing gets my rocks off like Mignola. I agree that the library editions are the best way to read Hellboy, but if you're looking for bang-for-buck value, these omnibus books are solid. And they're chronologically collected, so you'll get all the side stories and mini collections set at their appropriate times.
I wanna see that Mothman.
Another indie comic character from is The Goon. Fantastic series and great art
On our list to dive into at some point. We've both got those 5 Library Editions testing the structural integrity of our bookshelves at the moment.
Lobster Johnson and torch of liberty team up book would be amazing.
Always great to have a bit of helboy coverage, I think the Mignolaverse can be a little daunting to get into, seems so vast with helboy, Abe, Sledgehammer, BPRD, helboy and the bprd, helboy(insert date), Frankenstein, I could keep going a while longer but I figure you get my point. I was going to bring up the Torch point but I see someone has mentioned it below, surprised when you said you were unaware of it. I do enjoy it when things branch off into other things but still feel like they're a part of the whole, Fables does this a bit with the females and jack of the fables and other stuff, their expanding the Sandman universe at the minute and I look forward to looking into them.
Thank you for starting this.
Yea love hellboy I’ve been reading it since I watched your first video on it and absolutely love it

Or re reviewing
We’ll hang on- we got a lot more coming. It’s been in the wings for quite some time.
I´m late, but I came.
Good work Andre
We left a light on for you
yay hellboy :)
Is this the Imperius Re(du)x of Hellboy? Who cares it's good.
You nailed it.
When everybody compares X-Files to everything, and you never watched X-Files.
Russell Garifulla get on it Russ! Ground breaking television.
You have to watch it... The truth is out there somewhere 😉
Or re reviewing
Nice :) on Dark Horse, I've been enjoying a lot of Conan lately. Either of you fans?
Gregor Black I think Troy started the new arc that just began from Marvel? Prior to that I don’t believe either of us have read any
Yeah Dave's right. I've picked up the first 2 new ones from Aaron. I liked the first, and haven't dove into the second yet.
I think they're up you fellees alley + I've really been digging the character lately. Really enjoying the output & positivity to you guys!
Gregor Black thanks for sticking with us through #Batyear Gregor! You’re a trooper!
Hey man, I'm a huge Troy & Dave fan & want to see you guys win! Keep rocking & I'll keep watching :D
Hellboy and the Mignolaverse is great but I was always put off reading it as it's pretty vast and I heard there a lot of cross over. If anyone else is a bit OCD like myself when it comes to continuity then the below link is a life saver and gives you an exact reading order as well as listing the TPB that fit in both library and omnibus editions.

jared baldon yep- that’s what I used on future read throughs. That being said- you can read each title individually and be satisfied. But seeing how the whole universe fits together is pretty rad.
I think it's pronounced L-I-U.
