Sep 23, 2021Snyder and Rubn are well matched here. The story on the surface absolutely works and is satisfying on its own, but they both scattered details in their work that prompt questions, making for a reread that's richer than the first. Read Full Review

Sep 22, 2021As with other entries in this anthology, this book neither really adds or detracts from the primary Black Hammer storyline. It does, however, finally lay some groundwork for the Horseless Rider, giving a character we may or may not see again some time to shine. Read Full Review

I'll read anything David Rubin is doing the art on because his books always look spectacular. Really cool seeing him do something more Old West here compared to his normal sci-fi, Kirby-influenced work. The gold colors stood out brilliantly against the otherwise muted tones and Snyder's Horseless Rider has a lot of potential as an addition to the Black Hammer-verse.
