The interview with Mike Mignola now up on WordBalloon.Com.
I'm doing as many interviews as I can and am slowly learning the pitfalls. On podcasts I must learn to reduce the number of "uummmmm"s. Because so many of the questions are the same, I have to stay on message and not skip over important stuff just because I've talked about it a hundred times. I read what I said about Superrune's computer animation of Hellboy and even though I said it was "fantastic" it sounded like I was unimpressed.
But this Saturday will tell the tale. I'm anxious to hear some real discussion after Sword of Storms airs but I'm not sure the comment boxes here are the best place to do that. Check out the Comic Book Resources Hellboy discussion page. There should be plenty of talk there.
Next week: Hellboy Blood and Iron

I was just looking at Cartoon Network's website to see if they were plugging Hellboy properly, and on their "TV Schedule" chart it's listed as "Hellboy: Sword of STONES", not "Sword of STORMS". How can a TV channel not know what their own programming is called?!?

Yup...as I pointed out in the last entry, CN can't even promote their own program right. It still says "Stones" - a nod to Tad I am sure - and if you click on the description you only get the title, incorrect, again. Not even a synopsis. Oh well...
But I am SO jazzed to be seeing this in a coupel of days. It really doesn't seem that long ago that this thing officially got announced (probably even shorter in Tad's mind!) and here we are a few days away.
Wow. So cool.

I'm liking the description of Blood and Iron as being similar to a Hammer horror film.

I was just on the cartoon network site and they aren't really pushing the new show. No pop ups, I typed "Hellboy: Sword of STONES" even into their search engine I got nothing. They really aren't promoting this big on the site. I watch all the time and I still haven't seen a commericial. I must be missing it. That's alright we will show them, all the fans will turn out to watch.
