Thank you OP for the storytime. The end is what I expected, kinda unsatisfactory.
Well, at least it ended unlike Hellboy.

A comic book with an actual ending, even if unsatisfactory, is better than a comic that just goes on forever to be rebooted constantly.

BPRD has just entered Ragna Rok, with just a few issues left before Hellboy can fulfill his destiny and end the world. Downside is, to get there they're having to asspull and do a bunch of stupid shit, and it makes me wish Arcudi didn't leave.

Indeed. If only more people could realize this, but I guess the call of fame and greed is just too much and overrides love for one's art and a desire to see them get the ending they deserve.

It was great until that last page. They kinda rushed it by the looks of it. Like they had just a tiny bit more to tell but not enough for another issue.
Also couldn't she just eat Hester's dead body and regain it all? Of course she might not want to do that after what happened last time.

If she ate Hester, she'd become what she hates even more. And once she dies she'd potentially release Hester again.

Well, not sure how were the other comics, but this one was… a mixed bag?
It's really great in some ways while VERY disappointing in others. Like most of the works I've read of him he just gets tired by the end and just rush some crappy ending.

Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam

So I guess in 10 years time the folk of Harrow County have accepted the strangeness of the area & Bernice being the witch doctor she is. The priest is also totally right. Maybe not all Haints are malicious but their kind is inherently ill for humanity.

Gotta say I appreciate something as simple as running water being a weakness against a supernatural being. You don't see something like that a lot. Seems like more movie monsters have to be impervious to common known weaknesses to up the stakes. It's nice to go back to the basics.

Fucking goblins. If the song is bringing zombies then shouldn't all the ghosts be zombies instead?
That's all we got for now. I'll be back in February for the 3rd issue.

He was on Shock Waves a couple months ago and he was open about his writing process being going in blind and seeing where the story takes him. Which almost never leads to good endings. Just look at King. Bunn seems like a genuinely cool guy and has a clear knowledge and love of horror but he's not a great writer.
