A young Professor Trevor Bruttenholm of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.), decides to adopt and raise this devilish-looking boy after naming him “Hellboy”. By the time he was eight, the boy joined the Bureau as a paranormal investigator and through Bruttenholm's guidance he soon becomes an occult expert with extensive knowledge on that particular subject.
Though he grew up only a little on age but got an appearance of a full-grown middle-aged man with two horns on top of his forehead and a red skin. Despite having a demonic origin, he actually cares for the humans. Being the son of the demon Azzael, he possess super strength as well as nearly limitless endurance and the invulnerable massive forearm made from red stone, called the "Right Hand of Doom".
In his years as an active agent for the Bureau, he worked on cases of possession, haunting, exorcism, enchantments and fought creatures like Vampires, Werewolves and other mystical monsters as well. Following many of his investigative missions, he is often aided by his fellow teammate Abe Sapien, Liz Sherman, Johann Kraus and B.P.R.D.'s finest field agents.
