Ron Perlman at Trek Expo 2004

Ron arrives onstage

with a firm grip on his bottle of water, but it's a case of - - now you see it....

....and now you don't!

But Ron doesn't seem too perturbed by the loss of his beverage

And he continues with the job at hand

which includes a detailed explanation on the workings of Hellboy's tail.

Ron with a gleeful Anne Hunt.
