==Summary==
Hellboy is a fictional character created by writer and artist Mike Mignola. The character first appeared in San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2 (August 1993) and follows the half Demon Anung Un Rama known as Hellboy. Hellboy was summoned from Hell to Earth as a baby by Nazi occultists which spawned his hatred for the Third Reich. He was later discovered on a fictional Outer Hebrides Island by the Allied Forces and amongst them was Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, who formed the United States Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.).
In time, Hellboy grew to be a large, red-skinned adult with a tail, horns, cloven hooves for feet, and an oversized right hand made of stone. Although a bit gruff, he shows none of the malevolence thought to be intrinsic to classical demons and has an ironic sense of humor. This is said to be because of his upbringing under Professor Bruttenholm, who raised him as a normal boy.
Hellboy works for the B.P.R.D., an international non-governmental agency, and against dark forces including Nazis and witches, in a series of tales that have their roots in folklore, pulp magazines, vintage adventure, Lovecraftian horror, and horror fiction. In earlier stories, he is identified as the "World's Greatest Paranormal Investigator".
==Power of the Verse==
<tabber>
|-|Comics=In terms of Attack Potency, Striking Strength, and Durability, some of Hellboy's characters in their base are placed on Superhuman levels, ranging from Wall level to Small Building level+. In addition to these, others reach Urban levels ranging from Large Building level to Multi-City Block level. The highest tiered such as Katha-Hem, the Ogdru Hem, and Liz Sherman are well within Nuclear tiering sitting at Town level to City level while the lowest tiered characters Gall Dennar and Varvara sit at Below Average Human level and Street level+. The most impressive feats so far are the Ogdru Jahad creating a storm over Great Britain, making the monster Large Mountain level to Island level, the Ogdru Hem destroying France at Country level, and Liz Sherman burning the Earth, capping at Continent level.
As far as Speed goes, characters like Ben Daimio and the Lobster are placed at Subsonic, whereas 1st Chapter Hellboy is placed at Transonic travel speed and Roger along with others who scale to him are placed at Supersonic travel speed. A majority of the cast possess with Supersonic attack speed via their guns, whereas characters such as Ben Daimio at his base are Superhuman. However, the top speed feat is Hellboy dodging a laser, easily granting him Sub-Relativistic combat/reaction speed. 
When taking Lifting Strength into account, few characters such as Hellboy, Abe Sapien, and the Black Flame (Raimund Diestel) possess Class 5 to Class 100 lifting strength, allowing them to throw trees and lift car-sized pieces of rubble. The weakest out of all of them is base Ben Daimio possessing only Peak Human lifting strength and the strongest characters such as Katha-Hem, Demon Form Hellboy, and and the Ogdru Hem possess Class M and Class G lifting strength.
Overall, the Hellboy comics are rather formidable; a lot of common feats happen throughout them as well, and this verse is not without its hax, either, as a majority of the characters possess different forms of Immortality along with several Genius-level intellects.
|-|Video Games=Particularly, the characters' video game counterparts are not as powerful as their comic versions. In Attack Potency, Striking Strength, and Durability, they mostly reach up to Wall level and barely make it up to Small Building level. The characters aren't quite as fast, either, only possessing Superhuman movement speed with Subsonic reactions/combat speed due to dodging and swinging swords and Supersonic attack speed using certain firearms like revolvers and pistols. However, they do possess a few hax their comic book counterparts don't, such as Magma Manipulation and Vibration Manipulation, and there are more common feats in the video games than there are in the comics. Also, the strongest feat of Lifting Strength so far is Hellboy pushing a statue, granting him Class K Lifting Strength, making him lift slightly more than his comic book version can in his base.
|-|Movies=Like the former, the movie versions of characters aren't quite as powerful as the comic books, possessing the same levels of Wall level to Small Building level Attack Potency, Striking Strength, and Durability, as well as Subsonic level of speed as the video game counterparts. Even so, the movies do contain many common feats and the most impressive level of AP is Liz Sherman creating a blast of fire as a child, placing her at Building level.
