December Comics

CBR has the new Dark Horse, DC, Image and Marvel solicitations for December.

This is the stuff I'm thinking about in addition to my regular pull list.

BLACK BEETLE: NIGHT SHIFT #0
Francesco Francavilla (W/A/Cover)
On sale Dec 19FC
FC, 32 pages
$2.99
One-shot
When a powerful totem of dark magic shows up at the Colt City Natural History Museum, Hitler sends his fearsome Werwolf Korps to collect the piece. Unfortunately for the führer, Colt City’s protector, the Black Beetle, is on the case!
From the mind of 2012 Eisner Award winner Francesco Francavilla (Batman: The Black Mirror). Collects three Dark Horse Presents stories from issues #11–#13.
• Features a brand-new cover, 24 story pages, and bonus sketch material and art!

He did lots of covers for Mignola books which I liked.

Death was only the beginning!
HELLBOY IN HELL #1
Mike Mignola (W/A/Cover/Variant cover) and Dave Stewart (C)
On sale Dec 5FC
FC, 32 pages
$2.99
Ongoing
After saving the world in The Storm and The Fury, but sacrificing himself and Great Britain, Hellboy is dead, cast into Hell, where he finds many familiar faces, and a throne that awaits him.
Mike Mignola returns to draw Hellboy's ongoing story for the first time since Conqueror Worm. It's a story only Mignola could tell, as more of Hellboy's secrets are at last revealed, in the most bizarre depiction of Hell you've ever seen.
• Mike Mignola writes and draws the next phase of Hellboy’s story.
• Dark Horse horror gets under your skin!

I normally don't do entries for all the Hellboy, BPRD, Lobster Johnson etc. mini series. I get them all but they're all kind of ongoings, some perhaps more so than others, but this seemed to merit special attention.
