An exciting reimagination of the Eisner Award-winning Black Hammer series told by guest writers and artists such as Patton Oswalt, Geoff Johns, Mariko Tamaki, Chip Zdarsky, Kelly Thompson, and more of comic's top talents!

In Black Hammer: Visions #5, Kelly Thompson and Leonardo Romero provide a Skulldigger story that's a worthy addition to the Black Hammer mythos. The experiment of letting other creators play with Jeff Lemire's toys continues to reward readers with some fantastic stories. Read Full Review
Romero delivers some beautiful art throughout this issue. I love the classic style of the art and the noir elements are beautifully done through the use of shadows. Read Full Review
One of my favorite issues of the year!
Well, I guess Kelly Thompsons could write Black Cat well someday. (I realize that the relationship on display in this issue is much more akin to Bat/Cat, but I recognize that Bijou has far too much of a personality to be considered an approximation of Selina Kyle.

The Black Hammer universe seems neat enough, I guess.
