DEFINITELY go bowling!
Format: Hardcover
If you're like me (the husband of the woman whose card purchased this book, lol) and thought that Mike Mignola stepping away from drawing comic books was a crime against humanity, well, Bowling With Corpses is sweet, fun, dark redemption. Hands down the best thing he's ever done and the foundation for a new world and characters outside the Hellboy Universe. A craggy, crazy, shadowy, goofy mix of all the weird stuff I dug growing up: horror movies, Jack Kirby monster stories, Poe and pulp, Machen and Blackwood, myths, legends, and folklore, the Japanese ghost stories from Kwaidan. As Mignola himself says in his afterward regarding his semi-retirement, "The hell with this. I love drawing comics so I'll just keep drawing comics." Praise be to the Elder Gods for your decision, Mike—now get crackin' on your NEXT book!

This is Other Work, and Different
Format: Hardcover
It was recommended by a usually reliable source, but even with the amazing art this is some weird stuff, strange stories that are spooky and deathly depressive. Just paging through it, the style remains the same. Mike Mignola has done other work that I liked more immediately. There's humor in this book which might suit me better, so this isn't a bad review, just a little-bit at a time review.

Shades of fantasist history
Format: Kindle
This is a great collection of stories to introduce a new world and some of its characters. For Hellboy fans you will feel some echoes of those stories, but this different and more like a walk through the world of dark fairy tales threading to become connected in some future tale.
The art is beautifully crafted, and i hope we will get to see more of this word and its stories.
Thank you Mr. Mignola
