Hello and welcome to Comic Book Herald's Hickmania, a series running through 2022 where we'll be reading and analyzing the creator-owned works of writer Jonathan Hickman, from his debut The Nightly News through to his most recent output. We'll be reading one creator-owned work a month through 2022, and each month I'll release a new analysis with a new guest discussing the comic!

Today we're talking The Black Monday Murders and I'm joined by Harry Kassen! We'll analyze the work in depth, so expect spoilers! In its incredibly inventive 8 issues, The Black Monday Murders is a remarkable (to be completed!) tale of magic, murder, mystery, money and the secret history of wealth!

Topics today include:

Is this Hickman's best comic?
How do these 8 issues predict House of X and Powers of X?
Will The Black Monday Murders ever finish? What mysteries are we most excited about if it does?

The Black Monday Murders is:
