HELLBOY Creator Mike Mignola Reveals Awesome BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN Poster Art

Hellboy creator Mike Mignola has released an awesome Bride of Frankenstein poster that he whipped up for a special screening event for The Bride of Frankenstein and Mignola’s documentary film Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters, which is funded through a Kickstarter campaign.

Los Angeles-based Secret Movie Club will present the first public screening of the Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters documentary at LA’s iconic Million Dollar Theater on Saturday, August 13, 2022.

The screening will include a live onstage interview with Mignola, alongside documentary filmmakers Jim Demonakos and Kevin Konrad Hanna, and Secret Movie Club founder Craig Hammill.

If you plan on going, “The evening will begin with a special 35mm archive print screening of Universal Studios’ iconic Bride of Frankenstein, the James Whale-directed film which has inspired Mignola’s storytelling for decades.”

Attendees will be able to purchase a limited-edition 18” x 24” Secret Movie Club poster featuring Hellboy, the Frankenstein monster, and the monster’s bride. The Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters event will begin at 6:00 PM. Advance ticket and poster sales are available now. 

Here are all the details that were shared in the press release:

When Mike Mignola created Hellboy, he unleashed a visionary comic book character and launched an entire universe populated by unique heroes and creatures, misfits and monsters. Featuring in-depth interviews with Mignola alongside appearances from the likes of Patton Oswalt, Guillermo del Toro, Neil Gaiman, Rebecca Sugar, and Victor LaValle, Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters is a film for fans of the Hellboy universe and the Hellboy movies, but more than this, it’s a film for anyone interested in creativity and the imagination. 

“In a world populated by Marvel and DC’s corporately owned superheroes, Mike Mignola forged his own path,” said filmmaker Kevin Konrad Hanna. “In addition to creating Hellboy, Mignola created one of the most successful independent comic book universes in the history of comics. He’s a true visionary.”

“Mike Mignola is an inspiration, especially for creators like himself who don't fit into traditional creative spaces,” said filmmaker Jim Demonakos. “His story is about defending his vision, and his creative drive reflects all of ours who want to tell unique stories.”

“We're really humbled, excited, and honored to have Mr. Mignola speak to our community of movie lovers and movie makers,” said Secret Movie Club founder Craig Hammill. “Great movies are often made by folks who are inspired by the art of other mediums. Mr. Mignola's key work as a storyteller and artist in comics that strongly reflect his voice mirrors the journey of independent filmmakers. We're excited that our audience will get to ask Mr. Mignola questions directly about his journey and his thoughts on movies, creativity, and storytelling.”

The evening will be structured as follows:

6:00 PM Bride of Frankenstein

7:45 PM Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters

9:30 PM Onstage Q&A with Mignola and the documentary filmmakers.

The Mike Mignola: Drawing Monsters documentary was originally crowdfunded on Kickstarter, where it generated more than half a million dollars in pledges from backers. It will be appearing at film festivals throughout the year.

I would love to attend this!
