Praise for Black Hammer '45: From the World of Black Hammer

"I didn't think something could be thrilling and sad at the same time but now there's Black Hammer proving me wrong. Amazing, just flat-out amazing."-Patton Oswalt

"Fantastic."-Scott Snyder (Batman, Wytches)

"I don't read many comics these days and I can't remember the last time I read a superhero comic, but I'm loving BLACK HAMMER."-Mike Mignola

"On my pull list by the time I got to page five."-Mark Waid (Kingdom Come)

"Black Hammer is the maddest, most brilliant comic I've read in years."-Mark Millar (Kick Ass)

"Jeff Lemire's Black Hammer feels like it's walking two roads--one honoring the past of superhero comics, and one forging a path into the future of the genre."-Cullen Bunn (Harrow County)

"Black Hammer feels like a superhero story through an X-Files lens; it's strange and melancholy and real. The tale evokes an immense world filled with typically deep Lemire-ian themes of isolation, joy and simplicity. I can't wait to see where he goes from here."-Charles Soule (Star Wars: Poe Dameron, Letter 44)
