Black Hammer #1Media Release -- Due to a recent medical emergency detailed by Jeff Lemire below, Dark Horse has delayed Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston's Black Hammer #1.

From Jeff Lemire's blog: "Black Hammer has been a labor of love for me. It's a project that I've been working on, in various forms, for seven years. And as excited as I am to share it, sometimes life gets in the way of comics.

On March 26, my amazing collaborator, Dean Ormston suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on the left side of his brain which has effected his whole right side. Dean is now at home and recovering.

As a result we have decided to post-pone the launch of Black Hammer until Dean is able to work regularly again. I'd like to thank all the fans and retailers for their patience and understanding as Dean recovers and promise that Black Hammer will be worth the wait! The important thing now is Dean's health, and making sure he has the time he needs to make a full recovery."

Get well soon Dean! Here's to a speedy recovery!
