Black Hammer '45

In a bold and unconventional move, German publisher Splitter Verlag presents Black Hammer '45, a single-issue comic that reimagines the end of World War II through the lens of the acclaimed Black Hammer universe. Written by Jeff Lemire and drawn by Matt Kindt, this 2020 one-shot follows a team of experimental soldiers as they confront a terrifying supernatural threat in the final days of the conflict. A standalone story that expands the broader Black Hammer mythos, it showcases the series' signature blend of pulp adventure, character-driven drama, and genre-bending storytelling.
