Starting in 1982 as a bad inker for Marvel Comics, he swiftly evolved into a not-so-bad artist. By the late 1980s, he had begun to develop his own unique graphic style, with mainstream projects like \u003ci\u003eCosmic Odyssey\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBatman: Gotham by Gaslight\u003c\/i\u003e. In 1994, he published the first \u003ci\u003eHellboy\u003c\/i\u003e series through Dark Horse, and several spin-off titles (\u003ci\u003eB.P.R.D.\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLobster Johnson\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAbe Sapien\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eSir Edward Grey: Witchfinder\u003c\/i\u003e), prose books, animated films, and two live-action films starring Ron Perlman. Along the way he worked on Francis Ford Coppola's film \u003ci\u003eBram Stoker's Dracula \u003c\/i\u003e(1992), was a production designer for Disney's \u003ci\u003eAtlantis: The Lost Empire\u003c\/i\u003e (2001), and was the visual consultant to director Guillermo del Toro on \u003ci\u003eBlade II\u003c\/i\u003e (2002), \u003ci\u003eHellboy\u003c\/i\u003e (2004), \u003ci\u003eHellboy II: The Golden Army\u003c\/i\u003e (2008), and the upcoming \u003ci\u003eHellboy\u003c\/i\u003e film Mike's books have earned numerous awards and are published in a great many countries. Mike lives in Southern California with his wife, daughter, and cat.","brand":"Dark Horse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46303976718565,"sku":"NP9781506711058","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781506711058.jpg?v=1730755960","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/hellboy-and-the-b-p-r-d-1956isbn-9781506711058","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
