By 1970, Jack negotiated a deal with DC Comics to create the Fourth World series of books that showcased hero Orion along with the Forever People and Superman facing off against new villain Darkseid of the planet Apokolips. Kirby’s Fourth World is collected for the first time in affordable paperback from DC Comics, and continues to be at the top of the list of timeless superhero adventures.

EARTH PRIME TIME: ‘REAL HOUSEWIVES OF…SUPURBIA’ WITH GRACE RANDOLPH
A common complaint about the New 52 DC Comics relaunch was about the lack of female creators on the books. That’s OK with me, because that gives the smaller, creator-centric companies concentrated talent.
Pre-orders for Grace Randolph’s SUPURBIA made news last week by selling out of all available hard copies.
DigBoston asked if she was as excited as we were about her sellout! Continue reading
