Hellboy
Hellboy; Vladimir Giurescu; Hecate (first appearance in Hellboy series); Grigori Rasputin (origin); Ilsa Haupstein; Baba Yaga (cameo; flashback; first appearance in Hellboy series); Liz Sherman; Sidney Leach; Bud Waller (death); Roger the Homunculus (introduction); Leopold Kurtz; Prof. Dr. Karl Ruprect Kroenen; Roderick Zinco; Prof. Dr. Herman von Klempt
Hellboy fights off Hecate's minions and then a weakened Giurescu. Rasputin tells Ilsa of his supernatural rebirth. At another Romanian castle, Liz's BPRD team discovers an inert homunculus to whom she is drawn; her pyrokinetic touch brings him to life. Zinco brings Kroenen the preserved head of Von Klempt in Norway. Hellboy rigs Castle Giurescu to explode.

Benedict; Lawrence St. George; Sunset Lane; Huck [full name unknown] (introduction); St. George's butler [name unknown] (introduction); Inspector Lava
Benedict and the jib-bic do battle. The next morning, St. George is visited in his home, an ocean liner stuck into a country hillside, first by Benedict — who fears "the return of Gooseflesh" — and then by Lava. Benedict masquerades as St. George due to the bizarre creature now growing on the filmmaker's head.
