There was no denying it: Gotham was weird. And getting weirder by the day, it seemed. Murderous clowns, men made seemingly of clay, scaly killers in the sewers, the city seemed to have no end of strange dangers. For the most part, it seemed an equally strange figure dressed as a bat was able to keep most of this strangeness in check... for now.

But the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense was never the sort of organization to sit back and ignore the strange. The higher ups had definitely taken notice of Gotham city, and saw a potential for supernatural threat beyond even the fabled Batman's capabilities. And so, they had made the decision to set up an outpost of sorts, a Gotham Chapter where agents could keep a close eye on matters. Just in case.

A building was picked, a nondescript old factory in the city which looked no more remarkable than any of the handful of rundown old buildings surrounding it. But inside, the building had been remodeled, equipped with the latest tech, and filled with agents. Most notably, the B.P.R.D.'s most infamous agent.

So far, so good, Hellboy thought to himself as he glanced about the bustling building and the agents milling about. He'd been sent to ensure this new 'outpost' was running as smoothly as possible, and thus far there'd been no complaints. Save maybe one...

"A secretary?" Hellboy looked to the agent at his side. "Seriously? That's the only thing we're missing here?"

"We only need the one," Agent Paige mused as she looked over a few papers. "Compared to H.Q. in Connecticut this operation is relatively tiny. We should hopefully have an applicant coming in today for the interview."

"Huh." Hellboy shrugged his shoulders. "Seems like you guys are already on top of everything here... Makes me wonder what you even need me here, for."

Paige grinned. "Well, Red, if we get one of those clown attacks I've heard about, you'll be the first one I call."

Ok, I think I kind of love Hell Mask.

“Now, you defend justice and I’ll be violent!”

In episode 6 of Dai Sentai Goggle-V “The Love of a Villainous Wrestler” we meet the wrestler Hell Mask who plays the role of heel (or bad guy) in the ring.  The monster of the week steels precious gems and while escaping, crosses paths with Hell Mask.  Hell Mask gets blamed for being an accomplice of the monster due to his in-ring reputation and chased by the police as well as Goggle Black.

However, it turns out he’s actually a really nice guy out of the ring and was, in fact, heading to deliver toys as Santa Claus to schoolchildren!

As a note of trivia, Hell Mask in this episode is played by Kin Oomae who portrayed the truly evil Demon King Banriki in 1980′s Denshi Sentai Denziman.

Violently protective starters

"You have no idea," Hellboy spoke in nearly a snarl. He was covered in blood, mostly his own, and he looked--for lack of a better term--like hell. But still he had mustered the last of his strength to stay her hand.

Hellboy Starters

"You think maybe I made the wrong call, kid?" Hellboy smirked, clearly joking. Although, as earnest as the princess sounded, maybe now wasn't the time for humor. "

"That's not what I do," he clarified. "Sure, in the grand scheme of things, killing is probably one of the only things I'm really good at. But only when I got no other option."

"If I had a nickel for every time I've heard that..." So this was what people had been seeing in the night sky? Heard shrieking like a demon? Gargoyles were rare, but in his limited experience they weren't usually a threat unless you threatened them, first.
