B.P.R.D. The Devil You Know Volume 3: Ragna Rok story by Mike Mignola and Scott Allie, art by Christopher Mitten, Laurence Campbell, and Mike Mignola, and colors by Dave Stewart
The big finale is here as Rasputin returns to bring about the destruction of mankind's Earth. Hellboy, Abe Sapien, and Liz Sherman stay behind in what's left of New York City to fight him while the remnants of humanity flee to caves. The hope is to preserve humanity in some way. That all depends on Hellboy--will he fulfill his destiny as the world ender or will he fight against Rasputin? The answer is pretty obvious given the long history of Hellboy (and the even longer history of hero stories). Even so, the story leads to a satisfying conclusion for the characters. I was worried with the last issue that the creators had run out of ideas. What they really have done is run to the end.
Highly recommended for Hellboy fans. It won't be nearly as satisfying for casual readers.
