"Wake the Devil, Part 5"
*Abe and another BPRD agent head to rescue Hellboy, but fall into Rasputin's trap. Rasputin tells Abe of his imminent doom (see Abe Sapien: Drums of the Dead). Hellboy stands chained at the mercy of the resurrected Giurescu. Hellboy fights back, but Hecate, reborn from the blood of Ilsa Haupstein, swallows Hellboy whole, showing him visions of his destiny, to free Ogdru-Jahad and destroy the world. Hellboy refuses this vision and is free. Elsewhere in Norway, the inner circle is in turmoil. Rasputin, furious at their missteps, blinds Roderick Zinco, who flees in fear, stumbling into a control panel, resulting in an explosion which decimates the castle. *Source: Warlock
