I haven't read any in some time, are they any good still? I was thinking about getting the BPRD Hell on Earth books and the Hellboy and the BPRD books. I haven't read anything beyond BPRD Plague of the Frogs and Hellboy in Hell, so I wanted to verify if they were woke or not.

I looked and scrolled back like 2 months, and outside of the fact he is from LA, I didn't see anything liberal or even political. Am I missing something?
You didn’t see the picture of Hellboy wearing the Biden Harris shirt?
I wasn't on Twitter at that time, I only used it once Musk bought it.
Yeah, I will probably steer clear of really recent stuff.
Is BPRD OK up until it's conclusion in 2019 though?
I never finished BPRD and don't remember where I got up to, but I don't remember anything explicitly political. Could be misremembering, could be something that I didn't have context about, but the comics themselves seem to be alright.
But yeah, Mignola is a Cali fuckwit. Sad, but not unpredictable. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I googled it, and I couldn't find anyone calling hellboy woke besides the image someone linked. I also looked up the comics on those free comics sites and skimmed them, and there was nothing really obvious at least.
I will probably go ahead and at least finish BPRD. It sucks about Mignola though. I don't know why these comics creator continue to divide an already increasingly small fanbase. No wonder American comics are on their last legs.

Nice to see Literature Devil in the replies at least.
