Starting in 1982 as a bad inker for Marvel Comics, he swiftly evolved into a not-so-bad artist. By the late 1980s, he had begun to develop his own unique graphic style, with mainstream projects like  Cosmic Odyssey and  Batman: Gotham by Gaslight. In 1994, he published the first  Hellboy series through Dark Horse.There are thirteen  Hellboy graphic novels (with more on the way), several spin-off titles ( B.P.R.D., Lobster Johnson, Abe Sapien, and  Sir Edward Grey: Witchfinder), prose books, animated films, and two live-action films starring Ron Perlman. Along the way he worked on Francis Ford Coppola's film  Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), was a production designer for Disney's  Atlantis  The Lost Empire (2001), and was the visual consultant to director Guillermo del Toro on  Blade II (2002),  Hellboy (2004), and  Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008). Mike's books have earned numerous awards and are published in a great many countries. Mike lives in Southern California with his wife, daughter, and cat.  Jesse Lonergan is a writer and artist who has lived in California, Saudi Arabia, Vermont, and Pennsylvania. His work includes the Eisner-nominated  Hedra and  Planet Paradise (Image),  Man's Best (BOOM!
