DC COMICS RESTORES JACK KIRBY FOURTH WORLD ART

DC Comics on Tuesday announced that Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus Vol. 4, due in March, will be highlighted by The Hunger Dogs, with 24 pages of art restored to the original inks by Mike Royer.

"We are excited to share with readers Kirby's original vision for the epic's end in Vol. 4 of the Fourth World Omnibus series," said Georg Brewer, VP -- design and DC Direct creative. "This collection features 24 pages at the size that Kirby penciled them, the way they looked before being altered to fit the larger trim size of the Hunger Dogs graphic novel.

"Faithfully inked by Mike Royer, these pages are incorporated within the Hunger Dogs story, which is completely re-colored with a sensibility consistent with the previous Ominbus hard covers. Along with the Fourth World character entries he drew for Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of The DC Universe, these exciting, rarely seen aspects of Kirby's work and this important story make this a must-have for every serious comics collector."

In addition to The Hunger Dogs and art from Who's Who, the Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus Vol. 4 HC will collect Mister Miracle #10-18, Forever People #11, New Gods #11 and the 48-page story "Even Gods Must Die," originally published in 1984's New Gods #6.
