There’s a wealth of material waiting to be tapped within Kirby’s ahead of its time saga of good vs evil known as the New Gods. Something that DC is keenly aware of, as Ava “A Wrinkle In Time” DuVernay will officially expand Jack Kirby’s Fourth World onto the big screen.
There’s nothing that Scott Free cannot escape from…except perhaps himself, as DC’s Tom King and Mitch Gerard have revived Kirby’s escape artist Jesus for a series that has the new god stuck in the ultimate trap.
Choosing ten examples of Kirby’s talent is like being asked to chuck a dart at the most ostentatious dartboard ever: No matter where it lands, it’ll strike gold. So here’s a brief look at the tip of an iceberg of talent, as the late king of comic book art would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year.
There isn’t a trap capable of holding Scott Free for long, as the master escape artist has even managed to work his way out of death and resist the irresistible Anti-Life Equation,a feat that only a handful of mortals have mastered. Listen, New Gods stuff is weird but awesome. A fantastic character, who has largely languished within the DCU for years now. Until now that is, as Batman writer Tom King is teaming up with Omega Men artist Mitch Gerads to revive Scot Free.
Darkseid returns to wage a cosmic war this year, with the Justice League caught in the middle.
