Burned through several issues and story arcs of Black Hammer by Jeff Lemire and collaborators. So good. Many familiar tropes but they feel fresh, it’s like reliving through comic history. What makes it work? I think it’s because it retells more than it rehashes and revises. Moreover, it’s respectful of its characters as well as of the source material.
I’ve read it all but the Un-Teens and Reborn so far and loved it. Clearly Lemire has a Waid level understanding of superhero history and he weaves it in well.
