It may just be that Hellboy is a different kind of superhero than people are used to. I agree, people are not used to having a superhero be a demon from hell, have horns and a pointy tail. They dont know it yet (cause it hasnt been shown in the films) but his mother is a witch who sold her soul to a demon, who in turn had sex and impregnated her...with the half demon, half human superhero weve come to know as hellboy.

It could mean that he wipes out all life on Earth, or quite possibly, he brings about an enormous transition in which the old world ends and a new one begins. I feel that is more likely. This is not to say that the transition will be easy (they never are) or that there won't be pain and suffering, but it may be what life on Earth needs. It may indeed involve wiping out human life and having the freaks take charge, but to be honest, I don't think that would be much of a loss. Well, if you take in to consideration the biblical ramifications of Hellboys story (he is a demon from hell you know) you have to then think that when they say that Hellboy is destined to bring on the apocalypse, also commonly known as Armageddon, they are referring to the end of the world. So yeah, Hellboy is destined to do this. The answer lies in his right hand, aka The Right Hand of Doom. It was hinted at in the first Hellboy movie, when his hand is was used to open the gates to another dimension and bring through the Ogdru Jahad, those giant tentacled creatures floating around in another dimension. Only hellboy can do this, since his stone hand was used by some god to trap these creatures...it is only with this stone hand that they can be released. Though it came close to happening in the first movie...it never did. So maybe we have yet to see more tentacled creatures in Hellboys future films. One can only hope!
