Later this week, Dark Horse Comics will unleash its January 2016 solicitations. But first, CraveOnline has an exclusive preview of the solicitations and covers for the Mignolaverse titles for January. These are the books created and overseen by legendary writer and artist, Mike Mignola.
For January, Mignola and his collaborators have new issues of Abe Sapien, B.P.R.D., and Joe Golem, as well as a Hellboy Winter Special One-Shot!
Hellboy Winter Special One-Shot

Best-selling novelist Chelsea Cain writes and Michael Avon Oeming draws the first of three snowbound stories. Then Tim Sale visits Mignola’s prehistoric mythology, and in a lead-in to the upcoming issues of Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: 1953, Hellboy explores a haunted mine in the barren wastes of Wyoming.
