Good work. You found my secret file cabinet of personal dossiers.

I'm working on a new case. You could help solve it and see your work in my next memoir. Here's a clue... A punk kid rode by on his bike and yelled "Hey Hammer! if you're looking for the truth, you can find it in the ten cent rag It's Pulp-Noir under a dime!". And with that he was gone.

"They say laughter's the best medicine. I guess that's why my doctor told me to quit journalism and start a clown college. But then I realized, most of the clowns are already in politics. And their jokes? Not nearly as funny as the ones I dig up on the daily."

Capital Crackdown: Trump’s Iron Fist Grabs D.C. Police

An intense, high-contrast, black-and-white image reminiscent of a 1940s film noir poster. A massive, metallic gauntlet—an "iron fist"—is shown gripping the dome of the U.S. Capitol Building. The texture of the gauntlet is sharp and gritty, with visible scrapes and dents. In the foreground, out of focus and blurred by a newsprint grain, are the silhouettes of a few police officers with their backs to the viewer, looking up at the imposing fist. The overall tone is grim and foreboding.

HAMMER PUBLISHING

 The Written Record of an Existence.

These are the files the Controller didn’t re-write and the system can’t delete. This is the cold, hard history of my life—the real crimes, the phantoms of the past, and the black-and-white truth of a life lived outside the program. Every entry is memory-resident, stained with ink and blood, and deep behind my firewall. Dig deep, but don’t expect a happy ending.
