Publication History
Caleb Hammer first appeared in 1980's Marvel Premiere #54. He remained in obscurity until 2000 when he was one of the characters featured in Blaze of Glory. In the mini-series he chases after Kid Colt, later teaming with him and other Western heroes to defend the town of Wonderment, Montana. During the battle the bounty hunter Gunhawk shoots Kid Colt in the back despite also agreeing to put aside his chase of the Kid to defend Wonderment. Hammer strongly disagrees with this action and ends up killing Gunhawk.
X-Force #37 featured the death of Caleb Hammer. In a flashback in that issue one of the Externals named Absalom remembered shooting an elderly Hammer in the back after Caleb refused to participate in a duel with the young outlaw.

Famous quotes containing the words publication and/or history:
“An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A poet’s object is not to tell what actually happened but what could or would happen either probably or inevitably.... For this reason poetry is something more scientific and serious than history, because poetry tends to give general truths while history gives particular facts.”
—Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
