Happy New Year!  I have about a dozen of Kirby's books from 1971-1972 that I'll be listing, and we'll see how those go, and perhaps expand the scope from there.  Mid-grades mostly, but a couple of nicer copies in the mix.

Apart from the first issue, the Forever People run seems to be largely forgotten by collectors of Jack Kirby’s Fourth World series.  Which is a shame because in many ways, the Forever People is central to the story Kirby was trying to tell.  The Anti-Life Equation gets its clearest demonstration in this title, and Darkseid appears here more often than any of Kirby’s other books.

[Zonker]

Forever People #3 1^st Glorious Godfrey.  Darkseid appears.  VF/NM $25

Hint of a color break at the lower right corner.  Horizontal production crease at lower left.  Abraded upper left corner.
