the new york times weighs in on the electronic arts situation.

i haven’t read the comics, but hellboy certainly has the feel of a great comic book adaptation. ron perlman does an amazing job of looking like an oversized demon, but making him human.

one of the special features on the dvd is a collection of gerald mcboing-boing shorts. they’re brilliant, with fantastic character design and even more amazing backgrounds. it’s worth renting or buying the hellboy dvd for that alone. (the cartoons are in a great shape, too. perhaps restored?)
