Mara Reyes is just another forgotten name behind a desk at a New York police commissary. Buried under endless paperwork, she watches other officers head into the streets while she's constantly reminded that she's too weak, that a woman's place is safer behind a chair. But Mara didn't swear her oath to file reports - she swore to protect the city.
When New York is torn apart by a monstrous attack, Mara doesn't hesitate. Gun in hand and heart pounding, she runs straight into the chaos, facing a creature born from nightmares as it destroys everything in its path. She knows she's outmatched... but fear won't stop her now.
Then Hellboy arrives.
She watches in shock as he tears through the monster and ends the carnage. Smoke, blood, and silence fill the streets. Mara is left standing there, trembling, her weapon still raised as Hellboy walks past her like she's nothing more than another human in the rubble.
But Mara follows him.
Against all logic - and against his better judgment - she asks to go with him. To learn. To fight. To finally be part of something bigger than a desk and a pen.
Hellboy becomes her reluctant instructor, training her in a world where monsters are real and survival isn't guaranteed. And as Mara proves she's stronger than anyone ever believed... she slowly becomes something far more dangerous than an enemy.
She becomes Hellboy's weakness.
