I have to say I'm not fond of Lovecraft and Hellboy takes a lot of the atmosphere and enemies from his work. I also have to confess that I usually don't like any mysticism on superhero comics. It's not a surprise I didn't like it. But if you like Lovecraft stories and superheros, try Hellboy.

Mark Millar: The Ultimates (2004)

None

A good work rebooting the marvel universe. When you try something that ambitious it's only normal that some of the characters are not very convincing. Anyway, a lot more darker that the normal avengers.

Brian Wood, Wagner, John, Paul Alden, Randy Stradley, Darko Macan: Star Wars Legends Epic Collection (Paperback, Marvel)

None

I've liked it, some different stories after the destruction of the first death star and the struggle of Darth Vader dealing with his failure and the knowledge that it was his son that humilliated him.
