The Hammer: The Outsider

In this 1999 Dark Horse miniseries, writer and artist Kelley Jones brings his signature gothic, grotesque style to a supernatural horror story. "The Hammer: The Outsider" follows a mysterious, monstrous figure who emerges from the shadows to confront a town's dark secrets, blending visceral imagery with a brooding, atmospheric narrative. Though only three issues long, it stands as a distinctive showcase of Jones's unique vision—a moody, self-contained tale that feels like a dark fable from the edge of the comic book world.
