According to both Aragno and from Mignola, the genesis of Leonide The Vampyr is due to a drawing by Aragno, who portrayed in his unmistakable style a vampire capable of conquering Mignola. Aragno's trait and the character's ghostly eyes impressed the creator of Hellboy to such an extent that he wanted to build his own story around it.
The collaboration between Aragno and Mignola is nothing new, in fact the Italian cartoonist in the past he had lent his pencils for the realization of a variant cover of Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land, which had particularly impressed Mignola, who had praised Aragno's work.
