I was pretty excited when the Hellboy movies were released in theaters, and these Szoki Hellboy posters let me relive that excitement through fictional promotional pictures.
Many of you remember Hellboy as the hulking red hero who spouted off memorable one-liners and who only liked being called upon as a last resort, and Szoki manages to capture that sardonic wit in these illustrations through clever text. These Szoki Hellboy posters also have a unique visual style in that the images employ only red, black and white, and are reminiscent of wartime propaganda posters. I’m sure the White Stripes would approve of the tri-tone colors featured here.
The characters in these Szoki Hellboy posters include Abe Sapien, Liz Sherman and, of course, the cult icon himself, Hellboy.
