The Hellboy animated feature, Sword of Storms, will debut on the Cartoon Network on October 28th, months before it becomes available on DVD on February 6th.  Sword of Storms finds the BPRD enforcer immersed in Japanese folklore and it should fit in perfectly with the both the Cartoon Network's penchant for all things Japanese (anime) and the Toon Net's traditional pre-Halloween horror and supernatural-based programming.

 

The second Hellboy animated feature from IDT, Hellboy: Blood and Iron, appears to be even better suited for Halloween activities -- it involves vampires and haunted houses, but there is no definitive word yet on when it will be released -- though it is expected to be out on DVD sometime in 2007.
