I didn’t really follow the story beyond an uprising against Darkseid on the planet Apokolips, but art was wonderful.
Super heroic moron flying through space, vaguely near his space horse.
An especially super heroic landing.
I do genuinely love the old school approach to color of metallic objective like Darkseid’s armor here.
Sire, the peasants are revolting.
This panel suffers from some proportion issues meeting with the intrinsically goofy design of Darkseid to produce a kind of squished action figure visual.
A standout panel. The white silhouetting is inventive and evocative.
A helmeted lasergunslinger.
Oh good lord. At least there won’t be a closeup of that face.
Oh no.
The planet broke before the peasants did.
Just a super intense panel.
Fourth World is fantastic and is the foundation of all of modern DC and also Star Wars. I’m really struggling to connect with what you’re saying.
Fourth World has nothing to do with Star Wars which was taken from Hero With a Thousand Faces, Lensman, and Valerian and Laureline.

And no, Fourth World is not fantastic.
The hero Orion (a member of the rebellion) is the estranged son of the primary villain: a man in what looks like a glossy robot samurai suit. Both sides use an invisible magical power that rhymes with horse.
