Critique de Sherlock Frankenstein & la Ligue du mal

Through this spin-off, Jeff Lemire aims to offer a new set of stories within his created universe. However, the question remains whether this is genuinely necessary. The central character of this album, Lucy, is endearing, and the narrative is well-constructed. Furthermore, the story of Sherlock Frankenstein and his personal tragedy is compelling. Although the investigation is relatively common, and some plot twists are somewhat facile, the overall story remains enjoyable. Fans of superhero plots will appreciate the references to DC and Marvel universes, while David Rubin's artistic skills in panel layout and storytelling are undeniable. In conclusion, this spin-off is a success for those who follow the main Black Hammer series and may see it as a central element for future developments.
