Grendel Drago has been fatally contaminated with radiation. But being a soldier and a warrior, he would rather die in battle than in bed. He sets out to fulfill one last mission for his General -- kill the mysterious monster on the outskirts of town and die in the blaze of combat.

Devil Quest continues with the first chapter of "Meat Machine."

Drago's last mission as a Grendel is to destroy the monster hiding in the forest, and even he is completely unaware of what really lies before him. The monster turns out to be a kindred spirit, another victim who has paid the terrible price of war. Faced with this cold reality, Drago must devise a plan that will allow both him and the monster to leave this world with dignity, and he has to do it before the ambitious Zora gets in the way. Meanwhile, back at town, the wheels of intrigue continue to turn as plans are made to remove the Grendel-General and replace him with a surprising candidate -- his son! The stunning conclusion of Devils and Deaths is from the Croatian team of writer Darko Macan and artist Edvin Biukovic, with painted colors by Eisner Award-nominee Matthew Hollingsworth. Also in this issue: In Matt Wagner's fully painted back-up feature, the menacing Session Twins have arrived in the underground ruins of New York City. As Devil Quest continues, will we finally find out the mysterious connection between Grendel-Prime and Dr. Creach? Only by reading the second chapter of "Meat Machine" can we know for sure.

Grendel Drago has been fatally contaminated with radiation. But a Grendel must die in battle, not in bed, so Drago prepares for his final mission -- he will kill the mysterious monster on the outskirts of town and die in the blaze of combat.

Since Mike Mignola's Hellboy first hit the stands in 1993, it has become a cultural sensation, racking up a dozen Eisner Awards and inspiring numerous spinoffs, from a novel line, to video games, to feature films.

Sized at a generous 9" by 12", and handsomely bound to match The Art of Hellboy, each volume contains two full story arcs--the equivalent of two full trade paperbacks. Each volume of the Hellboy Library Editions also includes extensive supplemental materials, including previously unreleased sketches and designs. * Hellboy Volume 2 collects fifteen stories, presented for the first time in chronological order, with the original Chained Coffin introduction by P. Craig Russell, and a new, expanded sketchbook. * Over thirty pages of new sketchbook material.
