Off the top of my head I can't think of any others. Nice formatted table too.
Ah, I remember one more.
Abe Sapien #8 Michael Oeming
It's a challenging one to find and is expensive.
Are you looking to eventually track down all of these?
I still need a couple and some of them have been on my list for a while. That Storm variant has been a pain.
I have about half of the list. Most likely I won't get many of them because they are so expensive. Fury #3 is super expensive and I haven't seen one show up for quite a while.
Nice work on this. Maybe I should reformat the publishing order with something like this.
Hi captain, welcome to the forum. That's a sweet list.
I know of another variant cover both as a genuine Hellboy cover, although I wouldn't call it a Mignolaverse title technically. WHAT?
The Dark Horse "Drawing On Your Nightmares" Hellboy cover variant / Halloween Special "Dealer Incentive" 2004:
Searched for that one since it came out in 2004, until I gave up about a decade later. Seems a nice cover 'though.
From what I understand it's a variant cover edition to the Dark Horse 2003 or 2004 comic book "Drawing On Your Nightmares (Halloween Special)" [DH link: http://www.darkhorse.com/Comics/12-8...loween-Special]
(It seems like a sampler of sorts, which doesn't appear to feature Hellboy, although this particular cover does).
The cover was re-used on the Spanish edition of the "Hellboy: Oddest Jobs" collection I believe.

SLINT / Mike Mignola / Walt Whitman / Arthur Lourié / Dr. Pepper
Thanks Kees. That is a nice cover. I will add it to the list since it is a variant and has Hellboy. The comic book database shows it as 2003.
I am also going to add the HC variant of the Hellboy in Hell: The Descent collection.
This is turning out to be quite the covet list. Harumpf!

The Wild Hunt #1 variant is part of the Dark Horse 100 Special Edition releases - something you could add to the Notes section.
B.P.R.D.: The Dead Remembered #1 had a Chen cover and a Moline variant cover.
B.P.R.D.: Hell on Earth – The Return of the Master #1 had a Sook cover and Mignola Year of Monsters variant cover and #4 had a Sook cover and Mignola Year of Monsters variant cover. Technically RotM #4 is issue #101, but you have separate listings for RotM #1 and then just BPRD #101.
Awesome! Thanks for the assist and new information.
I will work on a way to clean up the B.P.R.D. numbering so it shows by story line and the overall numbering. That one is strange because the numbering was changed mid story arc with #3 I believe since it was #100.
Okay, I made the text in the table smaller and made some updates. I lieu of re-numbering the B.P.R.D. issues I modified "The Return of the Master" issue 4 and made a note. Hopefully that makes it clear to others.
It must be from 2003 yes, since the regular edition is, but also since just now I found out about a website detailing it as being given out as a "Diamond Retailer Summit exclusive", at a summit held in 2003: http://www.recalledcomics.com/Diamon...itVariants.php.
A summit with rare comic giveaway huh.
Add chicken fingers and some Slayer to that mix and it would sound too good to be true surely! Still, nice cover.
