Mike Mignola is back to drawing Hellboy for an 8 page story called Hellboy: The Whittier Legacy which you can read online at USA Today.
Mignola talks about the H. P. Lovecraft influence on this story: "I've gotten a reputation for incorporating Lovecraft stuff into my work, but I've never sat down and done a straightforward tribute to him. That's what this Whittier story is."
"The message for this story is: Don't mess with the stuff that's out there in the universe."
He also talks about the upcoming year in Hellboy:
"In the next year, we're going to do some really exciting things. Hellboy is going to be able to step away from the baggage he's been carrying around for all these years. It's a pretty big ending."
With an excited tone, Mignola adds an ominous forecast: "We're going to blow stuff up that we won't be able or willing to fix. We're going to change everything."
