Black Hammer’s Universe Deepens With this Look Inside the Next Tales from the Farm Story

Since it first launched in 2016, Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston’s Black Hammer has circled again in on its story of golden-age-pastiche superheroes to flesh out the weirdness of its comedian e book world. But after dozens of spinoffs alongside the primary collection at Dark Horse, Lemire is leaping into a brand new format together with a number of fellow creatives to ship shorter, common slices of Black Hammer.

io9 has your first unique take a look at Colonel Weird and Little Andromeda, a brand new weekly collection that may run on Lemire’s Tales from the Farm Substack publication. Written by Tate Brombal, the collection will rotate a large forged of artists because it tells a dimension-hopping story specializing in Black Hammer characters Colonel Randall Weird and Dr. James Robinson.

“I feel like the luckiest guy on the planet to be welcomed back into the Black Hammer universe! And this time nothing is off-limits, as we take this unlikely duo across worlds and genres in a project that could only be possible in this format,” Brombal mentioned in a press launch supplied to io9. “It’s truly a dream come true for a writer to work with so many artists of this caliber. From the beginning, Colonel Weird and Little Andromeda was designed to be the best possible canvas for our artists to cut loose and showcase their art form. So, strap in for a breathtaking, formative tale that is integral to who Colonel Weird and Doctor Andromeda become.”

Joining Brombal on the weekly collection are artists Ariela Kristantina, Ray Fawkes, Andrea Sorrentino, Marguerite Sauvage, Yuko Shimizu, Dani, Tyler Bence, Nick Robles, Shawn Kuruneru, Jordie Bellaire, Bill Crabtree, Steve Wands, Dave Stewart, and Tyler Crook.
