Reborn Part One

Black Hammer Volume 5

Squinty eyes at the ending.

Until the cliffhanger, I would have rated Reborn, Part One five stars. The ending though that forces Lucy to become Black Hammer again is manipulative and unnecessarily melodramatic. It's a borderline fridging. Some time is spent on establishing characters for Lucy's family but there are better ways to force a character do something they've given up.

With the added time weirdness, I am going on a limb to say that the cliffhanger is a temporary thing. There might be some future reverse gotcha. If there isn't, I will revise my rating downwards.
