Summary

Kirby's here! When legendary comics creator Jack Kirby (X-Men, Fantastic Four, Hulk) left Marvel Comics to go over to the competition in the '70s, the news hit the comics industry like a thunderstorm. What Kirby brought to DC Comics was an explosive new world, new characters, a new mythology, and a new level of excitement for comics fans--and this time, he was in full control of his creative vision! Now, for the first time ever, Kirby's entire "Fourth World" saga is collected in complete, chronological order and in full color! This final of four deluxe hardcover volumes features Kirby's original creations The New gods, The Forever people, and Mister Miracle, as well as the closing chapter of the Fourth World saga, "The Hunger dogs!" Also included are Who's Who profiles, an an introduction by Paul Levitz, and an afterword by writer and former Kirby apprentice Mark Evanier. --Back coverKirby's epic saga concludes! Legendary comics icon Jack Kirby (co-creator of Marvel's Fantastic Four, X-Men, The Hulk, and Thor) made a much publicized move to rival DC Comics in the '70s, as both artist AND writer on one of the first true epic sagas in comics. Exploding onto the comics scene with his most original creations yet--The New gods, The Forever people, Mister Miracle--Kirby rejuvenated the comics industry by introducing his unique vision of "The Fourth world." This massive, sprawling story was where Kirby could stretch his imagination without limits. The final act of this grand opera includes the last issues of each series, Kirby's closing chapter "The Hunger dogs" plus Who's Who profiles--all collected here for the first time in hardcover, in chronological order, and in color. --Inside cover
