THE HAMMER FILES

THE EVIDENCE SHREDDED BY THE SYSTEM. My office hasn’t just been hit—the System ran a cleaner through the archive.

If you’re in on the game, this is where we start.
Three noir gangsters stand in a smoky lounge. The man on the left holds a black satchel. The image has a stark, graphic novel feel, rendered in black and white with a focus on deep shadows.
