Product Description

Product Description

Between tracking down the followers of a prescient teen pursued by crab-like, subterranean beasts, and dealing with a redneck priest who preaches by way of human mutilation to fanatical hillbillies, the B.P.R.D. certainly have their hands full. Can a fractured B.P.R.D. wage a winnable war or are they fighting a battle of attrition? Written by Mike Mignola and John Arcudi, and drawn by 2009 Eisner Award winner Guy Davis (The Marquis) and series newcomer Tyler Crook, B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth: Gods and Monsters continues the series ComicsAlliance calls "one of the best books on the stands."

5.0 out of 5 stars The Fenix sees all, April 24 2012
By Andy Shuping - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth Volume 2: Gods and Monsters (Paperback)
ARC Provided by NetGalley

Hell. A living Hell. That's the best way to describe the current condition of the world. Strange and deadly creatures haunt the landscape and they hunt the humans they encounter. But there are survivors. A strange young woman named Fenix is able to lead a small group of wanderers through danger with what seem to be psychic visions. And B.P.R.D. wants to talk to her. They're still stretched thin with Hellboy and Liz both MIA and in fighting and bickering may lead to the destruction of the team. In other parts of the world strange new and bloody cults have arisen, some practicing the art of human sacrifice. And a former B.P.R.D. agent maybe all that stands in their way.

I'm still a bit behind in the B.P.R.D./Hellboy Universe, but I'm quickly catching up and I was excited to have a chance to read this next collection in the series. It's just as action packed as the first one and will have you on the edge of your seat as you wonder what will happen next, not just to Abe and his team, but to the reappearance of a lost agent and the other characters we encounter. It's another solid writing job by Mike and John and I can't wait to see where they take us next in this storyline because it promises to be a thrilling ride.

If you're an avid Hellboy/BPRD fan then this is definitely the book for you. But if you haven't read the first volume go and pick that up first then come to this one and be prepared for a wild ride.

4.0 out of 5 stars Psychics and frogs... business as usual, Mar 17 2012
By Sam Quixote - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth Volume 2: Gods and Monsters (Paperback)
The volcano in Houston from the first book seems to have more importance than I first thought where it seems to have transformed the city into a kind of ghost town with mob rule. Abe and Johann head down there to look for a special girl who seems to have a cult following because she foresaw the natural disasters.

Not for nothing, but haven't we seen a red-headed girl with psychic powers called Fenix before (or variations on that name)? Don't know why Mike Mignola and John Arcudi went with such as obvious X-Men reference but they pick up the story with Liz Sherman, the other red-head girl with psychic powers (how imaginative).

Liz is living in a trailer park dealing with the scarring of her last adventures with BPRD (see "Vol 14: King of Fear") but even life as a recluse won't save her from craziness as a new band of possessed nutjobs start mutilating each other and large numbers of frogs start showing up - again! Again with the frogs storyline... at least I hope they don't, it's played out.

"Gods and Monsters" is a pretty fun book for the most part despite the questionable choice of character in Fenix, and the frogs thing. The Liz storyline is especially good, I always liked her character and, with a major character supposedly dying, hopefully she'll get more focus in the following books. And anyway, dying in comics is never the end for characters so don't be surprised if they somehow make an impossible recovery. There's hope for this BPRD series yet!
