"Your petty vengeance fetish will have to do without Mr Groin"
It's still baffling that this pilot was never picked up. Also Paul Giamatti should do more voice roles, he's brilliant in this

Now THIS is how you adapt Mike Mignola's work. I haven't even read the Amazing Screw-On Head but this is more Mignola-coded than any of the Hellboy movies. Please give me more animated Mignola adaptations like this
