scrooge3 's review for:
Black Hammer Volume 1: Secret Origins
by Jeff Lemire
Not since [b:Watchmen|472331|Watchmen|Alan Moore|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1442239711s/472331.jpg|4358649] has a series done such a great job deconstructing superhero tropes. The group of superheroes depicted here are reminiscent of the type of weird science and horror characters published by E.C. in the 1950s. Dean Ormston ably complements the story with art that evokes that 1950s feel. The mysteries are not resolved in this first volume, but it really doesn't matter; the characters are interesting enough to carry the reader to a new and fascinating world.
Note: I read this as individual comic book issues.
