Description

Pencil and ink on cardboard (in two separate pages) both by Duncan Fegredo.
Original comic art made by Fegredo for "Hellboy: Darkness Calls" n. 4, published on page 7 by Dark Horse in 2007.

A page that, in its quiet tension, captures the essence of Hellboy: Darkness Calls and showcases Duncan Fegredo’s ability to carry forward the legacy of the character while imprinting it with his own voice. Stepping into a world visually defined by another artist is no small feat, yet Fegredo succeeds by respecting the atmosphere while expanding its visual language.

This particular page offers a rare moment of pause in what is otherwise a relentless pursuit, a breath before the storm.
