Description

In the 1970s, after decades shaping the Marvel Universe, Jack "the King" Kirby made a much-publicized move to DC Comics, where he was given full creative freedom to build something unprecedented: A sweeping multi-series saga featuring new worlds, instantly iconic new characters, and rich new mythologies that he called "the Fourth World." Rediscover the worlds of Apokolips and New Genesis in this large-scale reprint of Kirby’s grand opus!

This second of two Absolute volumes collects Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #146-148, The Forever People #7-11, The New Gods #7-11, Mister Miracle #7-18, Jack Kirby’s New Gods (Reprint Series) #6, DC Graphic Novel #4: The Hunger Dogs, and Jack Kirby’s lost tale "On the Road to Armagetto" (published at full size for the first time ever), along with a brand-new foreword by Tom Scioli, a gallery of Kirby pencils, never-before-collected essays from Kirby and Mark Evanier, and more!
