• Beautiful presentation for Kirby's masterpiece
  I think at this point it's pretty obvious that Kirby's Fourth World stories are some of the greatest comics ever published.

This first volume (of 4) of Kirby's Fourth World for DC Comics is a treasure to read again. I love it so much that I've purchased all four volumes for summer reading enjoyment.
