Black Hammer #2
In "Black Hammer Falls!", Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston dive deeper into the mysteries of the Black Hammer universe, revealing a poignant flashback that redefines Gail’s past with a surprising twist involving her longtime adversary, Sherlock Frankenstein. On the farm, Lucy’s discovery at the local library and Colonel Weird’s dramatic destruction of Walky-Talky set the stage for something far more unsettling—without giving anything away, the quiet of the farm is about to shatter. The story is illustrated with haunting detail by Dean Ormston, colored with atmospheric precision by Dave Stewart, and lettered with care by Todd Klein, while the cover by Ormston captures the weight of this turning point in bold, evocative strokes.
