DC Comics Gives Us A Sneak Peek At ‘The New Gods’ #1

Out of all the new DC All-In comics, including the Absolute line, the one I’m the most looking forward to is writer Ram V and artist Evan Cagle’s take on Jack Kirby’s Fourth World in The New Gods #1. Out on Wednesday December 18th here’s the series’ synopsis and preview:

“An old god has died, and the reverberations of his passing are felt across the universe, setting forth the soldiers of an intergalactic army and awakening the latent powers of a mysterious child on Earth. But this has all been foreseen — prophesized by the Source and fed as enigmatic images to its agent, Metron. Now, as Metron brings word of this cosmos-shattering prediction to the residents of New Genesis and Apokolips, both worlds are thrown into chaos and conflict. On Earth, Scott Free and Barda find themselves unaware of this incoming chaos while consumed with their most daunting task yet: parenthood.

Ram V and Evan Cagle bring the Fourth World to a whole new generation in this epic of cosmic proportions. An old god has died… the New Gods are born!”
