Black Hammer: Age of Doom #4

A young woman in a school uniform — tie loosened, clothes battered — grips live electrical wires with bare hands as blue lightning crackles around her, massive chains and mechanical machinery looming in the darkness behind her. The mood is tense and haunting, Dean Ormston's linework giving the scene a moody, almost gothic weight, beautifully deepened by Dave Stewart's atmospheric color work. Jeff Lemire's Black Hammer: Age of Doom continues to deliver that rare blend of superhero mythology and quiet dread that has made this Dark Horse series so compelling.
