Catching up on everything I haven’t read this week with my semi-vacation, please click through to enjoy Jeff Lester’s wonderful take on DC’s recent fourth volume of Jack Kirby’s Fourth World Omnibus:

The fourth and final volume of Jack Kirby’s Fourth World Omnibus suggests the editorial staff at DC are either far ballsier, craftier, or more ignorant of the material than I thought: although printing four titles in the order of their publication (instead of grouping them by title) did a superb job of initially highlighting Kirby’s protean imagination, reading the first 250 pages of the fourth volume is like watching the weakening death throes of a formerly-powerful animal: it’s awesome in a truly depressing way.

Much, much more at the link, but it’s the only review you have to read about the book, trust me.
