The world is falling apart in Mike Mignola’s Hellboy universe. The Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense a.k.a. the B.P.R.D. has done everything they can to slow down the devastation across the globe. But it’s a losing battle and the apocalypse is upon us.
Along the way, new B.P.R.D. agents have emerged as heroes, including Ashley Strode, one of the leading characters in the B.P.R.D.: Hell on Earth: Exorcism storyline. In this week’s B.P.R.D.: Hell on Earth # 140, Ashley is back in action and in pursuit of a particularly shady individual. And when she catches up with him, she’ll probably wish that she hadn’t…
Here’s the breakdown of B.P.R.D.: Hell on Earth #140 from Dark Horse Comics.
“Last time we saw Ashley Strode she’d learned only the most basic aspects of exorcism, as the world started to fall apart around her. Now that Hell’s closed its doors and civilization has ground to a halt in the face of the apocalypse, Ashley’s using what she knows to delay the end. A crumbling house in a small town holds bizarre secrets that make Ashley wish she’d stayed with the Liz and Kate—because it might take the whole BPRD to handle with this.”
B.P.R.D.: Hell on Earth #140 will be on sale this Wednesday, April 20, as Mike Mignola co-writes the new Ashley Strode story with Cameron Stewart, alongside writer Chris Roberson and artist Mike Norton. Dave Stewart provided the colors, and Duncan Fegredo drew the cover.
