This Hellboy candle feels like a personal gift from Mike Mignola to me (and you)

I've never eaten pancakes by candlelight, but soon, thanks to Hellboy, I will.

What do you get for someone's 30th birthday? For Hellboy, it's a candle. But like any expert gifter, he's made a 30th birthday candle for you for his 30th birthday.

Mike Mignola has partnered with the candle-maker 54Celsius and his long-time publisher Dark Horse for a limited run of handmade candles based on the candle seen in the limited series Hellboy: Box Full of Evil.

The Hellboy Hand of Glory candle measues 4" wide by 9" tall, and is made 100% out of paraffin wax - all except the five seperate cotton wicks which are all fully functional. They even match the blue/gray color tone laid down in the comics by Dave Stewart.

The Hellboy Hand of Glory candle is planned to go up for pre-order starting May 30 over on Dark Horse Direct.

Congrats to Hellboy creator Mike Mignola on the birth of a whole new monster universe (and an imprint for his whole family of fiction).
