Trolls, goblins, beastly tooth fairies, and haunting "angels" are only part of the grotesque menagerie of otherworldly creatures populating the world of Hellboy II: The Golden Army. This book dives into the renowned imaginations of Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, director Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Pan's Labyrinth), and artists from throughout the film's production-from original concept designs to photos of final costumes. The Monsters of Hellboy II explores the scores of beasts and fiends that appear in the upcoming summer blockbuster, with art and commentary by such talented production designers as Francisco Ruiz Velasco and Sergio Sandoval. The lush and disturbing worlds of the Troll Market and magic realm are explored, as are their strange inhabitants . . . butchers, fishmongers, street musicians, and vendors of all bizarre shapes, sizes, and professions.

A fascinating look at inspired filmmaking and character design, this excellent standalone book also acts as a rich companion to our illustrated script book, Hellboy II: The Art of the Movie.

* Featuring art and commentary by production designers Francisco Ruiz Velasco and Sergio Sandoval and photos direct from the set of what is sure to be the biggest blockbuster of the summer.

* A behind-the-scenes look at the monsters that inhabit the world of Hellboy II: The Golden Army!
