The main character was a guy with not so long black hair, at around the age range between teen and adult, after he saved the world he got transported back to earth with his powers, not long after that a mugger/gangster came up to him and he decided that he would kill every human or at least the bad ones, he uses what I assume is a recall spell to get his hammer and kills said gangster in the street. That all I remember as I only read the first few chapters.

Hi, welcome to SF&F. Do you remember where and when you read this?– DavidWCommented Apr 26, 2023 at 20:49

Was this in full colour or mostly black & white?– LogicDictatesCommented Apr 26, 2023 at 21:06

Is the title "After returning from the other world, I decided to kill everyone"? Based on isekai manga naming conventions and plot subtlety, this seems like a good guess.– AdamantCommented Apr 26, 2023 at 21:21

I think I've found it, but can you confirm some differences: 1. Is the guy definitely the main character, or a villain with plenty of backstory in the first chapter? 2. Definitely a hammer, or a giant, impractical anime sword?– qazmlpokCommented Apr 26, 2023 at 22:00

@qazmlpok If you think you've found it, post an answer. Even if it isn't what OP is asking about, A) they will be able to say what the differences are, helping other people looking, B) it stops other people from trying to suggest the same thing, and C) it will help other users in future, who were looking for that story but found this question while searching.– ChronocidalCommented Apr 26, 2023 at 23:06

This is likely The Warrior Returns. It is available on Webtoons.
After saving one world, warrior Minsu Kim returns to Earth only to find that he’s lost everything... so he decides to destroy the world he used to call home. In his rampage, he kills teenager Jeongsu Park and his family. But instead of dying normally, Jeongsu is transported to another world, where he finds that he's now a warrior himself. After killing the demon king of this alternate world and honing his skills as a warrior, Jeongsu returns to earth, hell-bent on revenge against Minsu.
Minsu Kim is likely the person described in the question, shown on the cover above, however he is not the protagonist. The entire first chapter is about him, but it's more of a villain backstory. The description of his hairstyle and age are a match, and he is someone that went to another world, saved it, and returned.
The scene with the "mugger" occurs near the end of the first chapter; Minsu decides that every other human should be as miserable as him, and starts killing people indiscriminately. He starts with a jerk he randomly bumped into that started harassing him. He summons a giant sword and instantly kills him, then starts destroying the city.
