Hellboy is a [red-skinned character](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-mart-uniqlo-the-monster) in the comic book of the same name. If you take a close look at the sweater, you will notice that the black symbols are exactly like the ones that Hellboy has in the comic book. However, the feature of the 'Hellboy' hoodie has to be the right arm because Andrew Hillman includes the notorious "right hand of doom."
