Publication History
Dark and Terrible is a three-issue arc published in April 2013 with art by Sebastián Fiumara.
Dark and Terrible was originally the name of a stalled Hellboy and Abe Sapien story Mike Mignola was working on in 1996.[1] Some elements of that story ended up becoming part of Plague of Frogs. It is unlikely this story has anything to do with this new version, as Abe Sapien's backstory has changed significantly since then.
