Sledgehammer 44 Volume 1 TPB Review Roundup

05/29/2014 10:53am
A man in a suit of iron drops from an American warplane onto a French battlefield and unleashes a powerful cosmic force on an army of Nazis, their massive war machine, and their most dangerous agent, the deadly Black Flame! Collects Sledgehammer 44 #1–#2 and Lightning War #1–#3.

"With his 'Iron Man' or Epimetheus (in Greek mythology brother of Prometheus, often depicted as foolish), Mignola has, seemingly without effort, created another iconic superhero. " - Geeks Unleashed 
"Sledgehammer 44 #1 is nothing short of awesome, as it ebbs and flows with a level of originality that most comic books simply fail to find. The creative team from the first page to the final panel capitalize on raw emotions to sell this incredible tale and trust me they succeed. " - Unleash the Fanboy
"Sledgehammer 44 is a great read for anyone who is a fan of fun, action-packed comics." - Comics the Gathering 
" If you like anything else in the Mignolaverse, or any kind of World War II/Sci-Fi story, than this is definitely something you should be picking up." - Read Comic Books 
""Sledgehammer 44" #1 is interesting as a Mignola take on Iron Man but it is miles better than just a war comic with a twist. This is an authentic document in comic form, the sort of thing we aren't graced with enough anymore. This book is an adventure and a committed tale that fans of the genre are going to love. Dark Horse consistently publishes niche genre fare superb in quality and consistently worth the time and money of the growing audience it achieves." - Comic Book Resources 
"The greatest generation of robots slugs it out in this World War II-era story set in the Hellboy universe that opens with a lot of promise. This story was years in the making, and the time taken by Mike Mignola and co-writer John Arcudi shows." - Newsarama
"Both these guys can put together quite the epic tale and this one has potential to rank up with the rest of their work." -Bloody Disgusting
