So I just read the latest issue of Hellboy that came out about two weeks ago (mine got delayed.. curse you Diamond comics distributors!), the Double Feature of Evil.  The art's by Richard Corben, who's work I adore (he did some smashing adaptations in his HPL Haunt of Horror series, which I highly recommend alongside his Poe stuff).  It's two short stories, and I was wondering if anybody else had read it yet - the first story is very much Mike Mignola's take on the Shunned House in my opinion.  I think perhaps better executed than Lovecraft's version, with a modern spin and a lot less historical dragging-on.

Also I have read the first two issues of Alan Moore's Neonomicon, and before that The Courtyard.  Oh sweet Azathoth.  That's some messed-up stuff.. not that I'd expect anything less from his crazy beardliness and all, but hot damn.  I thought the Courtyard was pretty awesome, and packed to the gills with references to the Mythos, but Neonomicon takes it considerably further and more.. grotesquely graphically.  Not for the faint of heart or the at all squeamish.

Enough rambling, somebody go read the Hellboy Double Feature of Evil and get back to me on that Shunned House comparison!

You could say that Eternal Darkness is Lovecraftian, but it isn't actually anything to do with Lovecraft's actual work.

Does that make sense?

That about sums it up.  Eternal Darkness had a lot of common Lovecraft themes (horrible city in your basement, hooray!), with kind of their own twist.  Mind-blowing elder god-beings but without any references to the Mythos.  When I first played it, I wasn't as big into Lovecraft.. now I need to go through it again and really compare all the similarities and evaluate it!
