Jeff Lemire’s Black Hammer returns with new sequel series: Spiral City
As a devoted fan of Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston’s Black Hammer universe, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation with every new announcement that comes out about this unique and captivating comic book series. The way that Lemire has managed to breathe new life into the superhero genre, while paying homage to its rich history, is truly remarkable.
As a passionate gamer and avid comic book reader, I’ve been thoroughly captivated by Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston’s Black Hammer universe since its inception in 2016. At first, it seemed like just an intriguing tale of superheroes stuck in a mundane, domestic existence. But little did I know that this quirky fable would soon unfold into a grand cosmic saga.
As a devoted fan, I’d put it this way: In the captivating world of comics, endings are more like gentle hints or extended breaks. With the anticipation building up for next week’s San Diego Comic-Con, Dark Horse Comics is thrilling us with the upcoming chapter of Jeff Lemire’s peculiar universe – Black Hammer: Spiral City.
In simpler terms, Lemire penned down “Spiral City” with illustrations by Teddy Kristensen. This dystopian tale introduces a fresh set of protagonists trying to thrive in a disorderly new reality. The identities of these new heroes have not been revealed, but it’s plausible that the peculiar grasshopper detective-like figure shown above and below is among them.
The Black Hammer comic series, numbering quite a few, pay tribute in a playful way to various eras and characters from the history of superhero comics. For instance, “Doctor Andromeda and the Kingdom of Lost Tomorrows” by Lemire and Fiumara draws inspiration from DC Comics’ “Starman” series created by James Robinson and Tony Harris (formerly titled “Doctor Star”). Likewise, “The Unbelievable Unteens” is Lemire’s interpretation of the ’80s X-Men and Teen Titans comics, with illustrations from Tyler Crook.
Based on the information provided,
In the aftermath of The End and the Second Cataclysm, Black Hammer: Spiral City presents a reconfigured universe where many missing heroes have resurfaced. However, their homecoming is devoid of fanfare due to rising anti-superhuman sentiment. This hostility is instigated by Malcolm Gold, the ex-chief of T.R.I.D.E.N.T and current mayoral candidate of Spiral City. Compounding the issue, Spiral Asylum has closed down, releasing its low-risk, mentally ill superhuman inmates into the already volatile streets. Against this backdrop, several new tales emerge, weaving an intricate narrative of lesser-known characters residing on the outskirts of Spiral City.
Black Hammer: Spiral City #1 (of 7) arrives in November.
