Praise for Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston's series Black Hammer:
 
“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

Black Hammer is easily one of Lemire’s best creations.” – Scott Snyder

“Amazing. Just flat-out amazing.” – Patton Oswalt
Patton Oswalt is a comedian, actor, author, and screenwriter. Oswalt is perhaps best known as the voice of Remy the rat in the film, Ratatouille, but he also gained prominence during the '90s as one of the premier West Coast stand-up comedians. Oswalt's albums Feelin' Kinda Patton, Werewolves and Lollipops, and My Weakness Is Strong are staples of the genre. Oswalt has also been featured in The King of Queens, Big Fan, Young Adult, and The Goldbergs.  View titles by Patton Oswalt
