KAMANDI By Jack Kirby Omnibus New Printing

After shaking the very foundations of the DC Universe in the 1970s with his classic "Fourth World" titles, comics titan Jack "King" Kirby redirected his unstoppable artistic energy into an all-new series that would prove to be one of his most enduring creations — the post-apocalyptic world of Kamandi, the Last Boy on Earth! This deluxe omnibus edition collects issues #1-40 of the beloved classic post-apocalyptic series, and features informative essays from acclaimed artist and storyteller Bruce Timm and longtime Kirby collaborator/inker, Mike Royer. Kamandi — one of the few survivors of a Great Disaster that destroyed human civilization — must search for a safe haven in a world populated by mutated animals and other strange wonders! Considered one of Jack Kirby's most creative works, Kamandi features a colorful cast of supporting characters who aid and support our young hero in one action-packed scenario after another, including a battle with a monstrous giant crab, an intelligent killer whale, and the relentless minions of the Sacker Company, who view our hero as a valuable commodity to be claimed. And in what is considered the series' greatest tale, Kamandi must undergo a series of violent tests against the leader of a gorilla clan for the ultimate prize: Superman's costume! Additional contributors include inks by Mike Royer and D. Bruce Berry, co-writing by Gerry Conway, and even some late in the run covers by the great Joe Kubert!
