Hellboy #4/5: Buđenje đavola
Hecate blocks Hellboy’s escape from Giurescu’s castle and confronts him with his destiny. As Rasputin prepares Ilsa’s rebirth, conflict breaks out among the Nazi conspirators supporting his plans.
In the fourth chapter of Wake the Devil, Hellboy tries to leave Giurescu’s castle before the explosives he planted detonate. His escape is interrupted by Hecate, the ancient goddess connected to the vampire’s return. Appearing in serpentine form, she insists that he cannot escape his destiny. The struggle to leave the castle becomes a confrontation over Hellboy’s origins and the role others intend him to fulfil.
Meanwhile, Rasputin prepares a horrifying ritual for Ilsa Haupstein. His promise of rebirth centres on an iron maiden, a medieval instrument of torture. In Norway, Herman von Klempt’s return causes division among Kroenen, Kurtz and their fellow conspirators. Loyalty to Rasputin can no longer be taken for granted, and their conflict threatens their own ambitions.
Mike Mignola brings together body horror, occult ritual and the question of predestination. Hellboy’s vampire hunt reveals a larger network of interests, linking Nazi experiments with ancient powers. This penultimate instalment carries its hero from one deadly encounter towards another trap and a renewed confrontation with Rasputin.
