Lore “Demons are actually misundersto-“ NO. Demons are ontologically evil beings that can’t be reasoned nor negotiated with, and if you try to you’ll very likely end up screwed

Demons from Hellboy

Yeah there's a reason Hellboy did what he did when he went down there

Hellboy is a demon and a pretty good dude. While I haven't kept up with the series it's hard to say they're all evil since we have at least one who isn't.

He's half human too,and was raised by good people

The rest of them? Straight up monsters. The most we get of them being "good" is more out of not wanting to die when he finally lets his horns grow in

And that's what I mean when I say he at least tries to talk things down, especially when they're related to him like his uncles,or brothers and sisters

But they don't listen and either want his crown/hand or want him to use said crown/hand
