Hourman 1 is clever fast paced and really develops characters and the world building! Hourman 1 is full of great art and great character development! Hourman 1's humour adds to the tones of heroics, word building, character development, character introductions, frenetic pace that never lets up, cunning etc Filled to the brim with daring do, humour, three-dimensional characters, old and new plots, appearances by the JLA, time travel, full of adventure and action! Brilliant and highly recommended! Crisp high five! Get it when you can! :D

Great Read!!!!
Tom Peyer’s Hourman series is incredible! It is well thought out and immensely entertaining. You find yourself bonding with the characters immediately. I was so glad to see the 1st issue of Hourman available in a digital format. I hope the rest of the series will become available too.
