Item Biography
"The Storm, Part One"
*Hellboy finds himself King of Britain, having been convinced to draw the sword Excalibur from the stone by Morgan Le Fay, but he is keeping a low profile, as all hell is ready to break loose. Hellboy and Alice investigate as a host of Britain's dead royalty rise from their graves to be his waiting army. He won't accept the role destined for him, however. Nimue, the Queen of Blood has declared war and is raising her army, ready to scrub humankind from the face of the Earth. Worse, she has murdered Mab, last Queen of the Tuatha de Danaan, and with Mab's blood, cast a spell over her henchman, who seeks to destroy Hellboy. Elsewhere, Gruagach, exiled from Nimue's presence, flees dejectedly, only to stumble upon the grave and the very angry spirit of Merlin, who has a score to settle with Gruagach. *Source: Warlock
