More DC Comics Big Books, Deluxes and Omnibuses Up to August 2021

There is, peculiarly, still no John Byrne Superman Omnibus from DC Comics – the last of his big runs not to be collected in such a volume – but DC Comics are continuing to add new collections of his work to their schedules in 2021. And a host of other big books, deluxe editions, omnibuses and the like.

Here's a look at a few more, recently joining the schedules through to August 2021.

O.M.A.C. by Jack Kirby – August 3rd 2021

One of Jack Kirby's final projects for DC Comics in the 1970s presents a dystopian future in which ordinary people are pushed to violence to relieve their stress, and a corporate nobody called Buddy Blank is recruited by the Global Peace Agency to become the super-powered being known as O.M.A.C. — One Man Army Corps. In these 1970s tales, Jack Kirby introduced O.M.A.C. — One Man Army Corps! Powered by the orbiting, sentient satellite known as Brother Eye, O.M.A.C. has been charged by the Global Peace Agency with stopping the evil schemes of power hungry millionaires who seek to exploit those less fortunate than them. It's a vision of the future unlike any you've seen before.

Fourth World by John Byrne Omnibus – 13th July 2021

Following his legendary work on Superman, X-Men, and Fantastic Four, John Byrne takes on Jack Kirby's groundbreaking creations in this oversized hardcover collection!

John Byrne reinvented Superman and illustrated some of the most famous stories in X-Men history. Much like how Jack Kirby created the Fourth World at DC following his genre-defining career at Marvel, after Byrne's work on multiple pop culture icons, the writer and artist took on the Fourth World himself, as collected in this hardcover omnibus.

While staying faithful to Kirby's original vision, these tales brought characters like Orion, Darkseid, Mr. Miracle, and the Forever People into the 1990s, reviving the epic mythology of New Genesis and Apokolips for a new generation of readers.

This collection also includes Genesis, a team-up between the heroes of Earth–including Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman–and the New Gods of New Genesis against Darkseid, as the Godwave threatens reality!

This volume collects New Gods #12-15, Jack Kirby's Fourth World #1-20, and Genesis #1-4.

Superman: The Man of Steel Vol. 3 – 1st June 2021

Following Crisis on Infinite Earths, comic book superstar John Byrne reimagined Superman for a brand-new era, presenting a fresh take that brought the pop culture icon into the modern day. In this oversized hardcover collection, Byrne is joined by fellow acclaimed comic book veterans such as Arthur Adams, and Jerry Ordway, in stories including the Man of Steel against Toyman, Superman teaming with Green Lantern, and a day at the circus that turns into an encounter with Brainiac! Plus, Byrne teams with legendary Superman artist Curt Swan for the galaxy-faring Superman: The Earth Stealers! This volume collects Superman #12-15, Adventures of Superman #436-438, Action Comics #594-597, Superman: The Earth Stealers #1, Action Comics Annual #1, Superman Annual #1, Adventures of Superman Annual #1, Booster Gold #23, and material from Who's Who Update 1987 #5 and Who's Who Update 1988 #2.
