Hellboy, in a nutshell: I haven't seen the Hellboy movie, but I have skimmed over 137,000 reviews of it. Moments ago, I stumbled across the best of the bunch, by one Neil Gaiman:

"Saw Hellboy last night and very, very much enjoyed it. It was like a Mike Mignola comic, only you could see everyone's feet.

"(Sorry. Small Mike Mignola joke there. Very small. And Hellboy was a terrific piece of work.)"
