Ah dang Lashaan! But I do agree with you on the mediocre artwork or rather, as art is subjective, not to my taste anyway. Simplistic drawings etc. I had seen it on your IG and it was my first thought!
I am soo sorry that this one was a disappointment, Lashaan! 😔 When I saw your tweet and then the cover and the title, I thought that it must have been an impressive one but alas! ☹️☹️
STILL, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT INTRO?!!?????!??!!!??!?! 😱😱😱😱😱😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 I mean WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY IS IT SOO BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN?! IT’s JUST…..I LOVE IT SOO VERY VERY MUCH OKAY?! ❤️❤️😍😍😇🦋
Youch! That art does indeed look truly awful and a shame as the concept sounds right up my street as I love anything connected with World War II, I hear a lot of good things about Black Hammer overall but at least I know this one is to be avoided if I ever dip my toe into the BH universe. Great write-up my friend!
Yep. Matt Kindt’s artwork is usually a tough sell. It works for some of his solo work, if you allow it to grow on you, but otherwise, it’s usually awful to me hahah
I could only honestly recommend the original BH series. I have a couple more of the spin-offs to check out but so far they haven’t been that essential. Thanks for reading, Chris! 😀
Oh nooo another bad book for you, Lashaan 😞 The artwork looks so weird haahha 😂 I kind of see the “artistic style” but the box with the thing (no idea what it is) does “ratatatata” looks just like something I could draw myself, which is definitely not a compliment 😂
Great review anyway, my dear 😍
Hahahahahahaah I’m dying! It is indeed pretty bad. I think I could do better with my eyes closed! It’s just not a style that worked with the story, although Matt Kindt’s style could indeed work with other stories… Thank you so much, Caroline! ❤
Reading this review, I wanted to make “pew, pew, pew” noises pretending I was firing off an anti-aircraft gun at the story as it flew by 😀

It doesn’t look good… And it does sound completely irrelevant and unnecessary. Hope your next book/comic will be better!

Pointless indeed. It’s good to have these bad books here and then to relativize things though. 😂

Maybe the artwork was meant to resemble that from the times of World War II?

It was meant to reproduce a style by another artist and to try and capture a WWII era art but it failed to my eyes hahah 😂

All that shines is not gold, but all that doesn’t shine… is not gold, either?

Hahah it’ll always be subjective but I’ll have a tough time being convinced by anyone that this is “beautiful” though! 😂
