Ordering Chinese food becomes very frustrating in this two page comedic story.
I was quite pleased reading this comic book from Dark Horse Comics. I received it in the Comic Block subscription box(review of subscription box here). It came with an exclusive Comic Block cover and it was a very fun read. I'm a fan of Hellboy and getting a few short stories including Red is always a good thing. It's difficult to pick a favorite of the four stories as they were all good in their own way.
