I don't think he has ever been illustrated as D.C.'s most powerful being (I think Spectre was always depicted in this role), and i don't think we'll be seeing any of his more Impressive feats during this collection. (If you want to see Darksied at his most powerful read The Great Darkness Saga, Legion of Super heroes, that came out). But in all honestly, WHO CARES. This is vintage Kirby Sci Fi madness at its best. What other reason do you need for reading it ?

Then if WHO CARES why you even botherin posting?

Because I like illustrating how Sad i think people are, who read comics to help them debate on here !

I anticipate a Backlash, that will involve retorts about how supposedly sad I am for making this pretty accurate observation,

OH and the customary sock gibes. 🙄 😆

No, it's not sadness is just plain stupid and over generalize ignorance.

This is been brought back for the new generation of readers who haven't been introduce to Jack Kirby's Fourth World. It is basically introducing new readers to the Epic that occur prior to events in the Crisis of the Infinite Earth and Infinite Crisis.

Many new readers to the DCU don't know or are aware of the Fourth World. This will be a great introduction.

For those of us whom have read the Epic are glad this compiliation is been made. It is a great way for us to remenber how simple and great story telling was back in silver age.

I agree, which i why i think its quite SAD, when members start speculating about how powerful Darksied will be portrayed in the series.

I wasn't refering to our other debate.

You were in THIS thread flaming other users (something you do alot of).

This crap ruins good threads, so I don't see why you do it.

Case in point.

Hmmm, well on the DC website, the 4th World TPB's are ordered as follows:

» Jack Kirby's Forever People
» Jack Kirby's Fourth World
» Jack Kirby's Fourth World: Omnibus Vol. 1
» Jack Kirby's Fourth World: Omnibus Vol. 2
» Jack Kirby's Mr. Miracle
» Jack Kirby's New Gods

But I'm not sure if they were placed in this order according to their release date(s).

The only new ones there is the omnibus', the rest are older collections.
