The newest solicitations for the direct market have a few previously mentioned Kirby items. For those who want to buy Mark Evanier’s KIRBY – KING OF COMICS<\/a> from their comic book retailer, it’s listed in the books section, on or about page 400, with the order code “JUL07 4078”. Meanwhile, JACK KIRBY\u2019S FOURTH WORLD OMNIBUS VOL. 3<\/a> has a number of classic bits, including my favourite Fourth World story, “Himon”. And the first of Kirby’s FIRST ISSUE SPECIAL one-shots, featuring Atlas, has a tenuous enough link to some other DC stuff to show up in SHOWCASE PRESENTS: THE GREAT DISASTER FEATURING THE ATOMIC KNIGHTS AND HERCULES VOL. 1 TP<\/a>. Couldn’t they find a way to connect the Dingbats to that stuff? (and more seriously, no OMAC?)<\/p>\n
