Elsewhere, Leopold struggles to reach the cell phone he lifted from the doctor before its battery dies.

![]() | Saturday nights are generally date and movie nights, and as such if you don't have a date maybe Hellboy: Sword of Storms can occupy your time. Being the first animated adventure for Hellboy, fans of the comics eagerly anticipate the supernatural comedic action that will surely ensue. If you enjoy either the film version or the comics version, you will be glad to know that both Mike Mignola and Guillermo del Toro took part in the making of this version of the character - if that doesn't get you excited I don't know what will. |
