Kate Corrigan arrives to extract Hellboy and tell him what has befallen the other teams. Rasputin appears at the Norwegian castle headquarters of Project Ragna Rok and strikes Zinco blind, causing him to stumble into a detonator that destroys the castle.

Publisher’s description
In the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense's most disastrous mission yet, all agents have been put out of action, including Hellboy. Beaten and chained, he's set at the crossroads in the hands of monsters and forced to confront his real purpose on earth, as Wake the Devil reaches its giant conclusion. In the final installment of "Silent as the Grave," Gary Gianni's MonsterMen solve the case, a house burns down for the second time, and a familiar face joins the circus.
