I am obsessed or have been obsessed with Jack Kirbys "Fourth World" Saga, mainly "the New Gods" and "Mister Miracle" but also like "the Forever People". I am really obsessed with Mister Miracle and Orion, and the whole canundrum with New Genesis and Apocolypse, the charactets which inhabits these stories - the mythology which Jack Kirby spun out yet never really concluded.

So what i love is the added mysterie, accidental mysteri of the New Gods story.

"The Fourth World Saga" whom said to be the first graphic novel is so good

I remember the first New Gods series waaaaay back in the 70s.

Kirby is absolutely one of the greats.

wow man.. far out.. really

I've been obsessed with many things..   even some strange ones... but you are one of the few people here capable of making me feel .... gasp... normal.

that is a complement btw...  cheerish that...  after all these years here. All the people I've seen blow through the forum. It takes a special one to merit one of those from me haha

I used to buy a lot of comics back in the old days from 1959 until about 1970....I must have missed that series when I started college. It looks interesting.

About 20 years ago I became 'obsessed' with a series called The Invisibles by Grant Morrison.
