Transcription
Production
Like the live-action films, it was co-produced by Revolution Studios. The animation was done by Japanese animation studio Madhouse. Both films were distributed by Anchor Bay Entertainment, instead of Sony Pictures (first film), Universal Studios (second film), and Lawrence Gordon Productions (both live-action films). A third film was being planned but was never greenlit.[1] Both films were re-released in Ultra HD Blu-ray as a double feature by Lionsgate Home Entertainment on April 12, 2019.[2]
Cast
Ron Perlman, who played Hellboy in the live-action films, reprises his role in the animated version. Selma Blair and John Hurt also reprise their roles from the film Liz Sherman and Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, respectively. The voice of Abe Sapien is Doug Jones, who played Abe in prosthetic work in the live-action movies but did not provide the voice for the first film (Abe's vocals for that film were done by an uncredited David Hyde Pierce). He did, however, voice the character in the second film. Kate Corrigan is voiced by Peri Gilpin. Music is by Christopher Drake.
Films
Sword of Storms
In Sword of Storms (2006), Hellboy and Kate Corrigan are dispatched to Japan to solve the mystery of a professor possessed by the Japanese demons Thunder and Lightning. The demons wish to get their hands on a powerful haunted sword, which will free them, and allow them to unleash their brothers and destroy the world. While Hellboy is sent into an alternate dimension, facing Yokai on the way, his B.P.R.D. teammates, Abe Sapien and Liz Sherman, try to stop one of the Dragons on the first wave of the coming chaos.
Blood and Iron
Hellboy: Blood and Iron (2007) deals with Professor Trevor Bruttenholm's experience with a vampiress (the blood countess) in 1934 and the present day. Hellboy also faces off against Hecate.
Short films

Hmm, so the sun worshippers forced the bat guys underground?
Quite literally, it would seem.
