*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2014*

I'm a hardcore Kirby fan, and to people like me this is a very welcome volume. It's not Jack's greatest work to be sure, but there are moments of brilliance throughout the 600+ pages represented here. I recently got an email asking me about the Sandman content in this book, as there have evidently been differing reports about what's in here ... so to clarify for all, here's what you get in this Omnibus (note that the Black Magic issues were published in the 70s, but they reprint pre-Code material from Jack and Joe Simon published in the 50s in Black Magic and Strange World of Your Dreams):Black Magic #1 (Oct-Nov/73) -- three stories (Maniac, The Head of the Family, The Greatest Horror of Them All)Black Magic #2 (Dec/73-Jan/74) -- four stories (Fool's Paradise, The Cat People, Birth After Death, Those Who Are About to Die)Black Magic #3 (Apr-May/74) -- two stories (Nasty Little Man, The Angel of Death)Black Magic #4 (Jun-Jul/74) -- cover art and one story (Last Second of Life)Black Magic #5 (Aug-Sep/74) -- two stories (Strange Old Bird, Up There)Black Magic #6 (Oct-Nov/74) -- one story (The Girl Who Walked on Water)Black Magic #7 (Dec/74-Jan/75) -- cover art and two stories (The Cloak, Freak)Black Magic #8 (Feb-Mar/75) -- two stories (The Girl in the Grave, Send Us Your Dreams)Black Magic #9 (Apr-May/75) -- one story (The Woman in the Tower)First Issue Special #1 (Apr/75) -- Atlas the GreatFirst Issue Special #5 (Aug/75) -- ManhunterFirst Issue Special #6 (Sep/75) -- Dingbats of Danger StreetRichard Dragon, Kung-Fu Fighter #3 (Aug-Sep/75) -- Claws of the DragonKobra #1 (Feb-Mar/76) -- Fangs of the KobraSandman #1 (Winter/74) -- General ElectricSandman #2 (Apr-May/75) -- cover artSandman #3 (Jun-Jul/75) -- cover artSandman #4 (Aug-Sep/75) -- Panic in the Dream StreamSandman #5 (Oct-Nov/75) -- The Invasion of the Frog MenSandman #6 (Dec/75-Jan/76) -- The Plot to Destroy Washington DCBest of DC #22 (Mar/82) -- The Seal Men's War on Santa ClausSuper Powers #1 (Jul/84) -- Power Beyond PriceSuper Powers #2 (Aug/84) -- Clash Against ChaosSuper Powers #3 (Sep/84) -- Amazons At WarSuper Powers #4 (Oct/84) -- Earth's Last StandSuper Powers #5 (Nov/84) -- Spaceship Earth: We're All On ItSuper Powers promotional posterDC Comics Presents #84 (Aug/85) -- Give Me Power ...

    King Kirby the way he should be read!
  

*by R***. on Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2014*

Now THIS is how an omnibus should be done! Great reproduction, great color and great artwork by the King himself, Jack Kirby! This edition covers Jack's work at DC Comics after he had created his Fourth World opus, and after he had returned to Marvel Comics, gone into animation, and become a free agent, as it were.The selections here are a strange cross-section of DC Comics in the seventies and eighties. Black Magic reprints some old Kirby tales from the fifties, including some of his Dream Detective stories. Following that up was Kirby's revival of the Sandman, this time as a character who could control dreams, an issue of Kung Fu Fighter, the first issue of Kobra, some First Issue Specials (including the revival of Manhunter), Superman meeting the Challengers, and the first two Super Powers toy tie-in series.My one qualm with the book is the addition of all the Super Powers issues; Jack did plot the series, but only wrote and drew the final issue. The first four had some truly atrocious art (which had the saving grace of some Alan Kupperberg inking on a few issues), and had little to do with Jack; it comes off as four issues of filler in an otherwise excellent volume. Having Kirby do the entirety of the the second series more than makes up for it, since we get Jack's take on Doctor Fate, Red Tornado, Martian Manhunter and even the modern-look Green Arrow.Speaking of GA, I've read a lot of complaining reviews on the first Kirby Omnibus, since it had Green Arrow on the cover and wasn't completely Green Arrow all the way through; apparently no one bothers to look to see exactly how much of the feature Kirby actually did - it was only about nine or ten eight-page stories. That's obviously not going to fill 300+ pages. If the rest of that book is anything like this, I'm definitely grabbing it as soon as I find an affordable copy.If you like good comics, and/or if you like Jack Kirby, THIS is definitely a book for you!

    Jack's Last Time at DC
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2013*

Jack Kirby, came back to DC in the 1970s after leaving Marvel; he then went back to Marvel; then returned again to DC with mixed results. This books starts off with material from Kirby's reprint run of Black Magic (the original was out in the 1950s the reprints in the 1970s). We get to see two one shots from 1st Issue Special: The Dingbats of Danger Street (an updated kid gang) and Atlas. Sadly there were more issues of the Dingbats but they were never published: it is a shame they did not make this volume. The highlight of the book is Kirby's Sandman; a fun take on the character. This and Kobra (a book based on a villain) are unique high points of this collection.Now about Super Powers- this was a series drawn by Kirby to promote a toy line. In one way it is cool to see Jack handle the Justice League on his own; in another way it is sad to see his art in decline; I am not trying to disrespect him but then again Kirby even at his weakest is better than others at their top.The book itself uses non-glossy paper which I like as it gives the volume more of a "real" comics feel. Even at the cover price I think it is worth it; but at the discount price (at least at the time I write this review) I think it is well worth it to see why Jack was known as King Kirby.
