Synopsis

At last, the first title in the acclaimed FOURTH WORLD series is in trade paperback!
DC collects Kirby’s four classic series of the 1970s — THE NEW GODS, THE FOREVER PEOPLE, MISTER MIRACLE and SUPERMAN’S PAL, JIMMY OLSEN — in chronological order as they originally appeared. These comics spanned galaxies, from the streets of Metropolis to the far-flung worlds of New Genesis and Apokolips, as cosmic-powered heroes and villains struggled for supremacy.
This first volume features the debuts of Orion of the New Gods, the evil Darkseid, super-escape artist Mister Miracle and many others, and features appearances by Superman, from the pages of SUPERMAN’S PAL, JIMMY OLSEN, FOREVER PEOPLE, NEW GODS and MISTER MIRACLE!
