Featuring Captain Victory, Silver Star and more of Jack Kirby's greatest concepts, including characters never before seen in comics form! Kurt Busiek ( ASTRO CITY) and Alex Ross ( KINGDOM COME) team up for their first full collaboration since 1994, with finished art (from Alex's layouts) by Jack Herbert (BLACK TERROR). Don't miss this tantalizing prelude to KIRBY: GENESIS -- a bold, explosive adventure debuting a universe of wild Kirby creations! This is the beginning. This is THE Genesis! This 32 page book will features an original story as well as tons of bonus materials!

Then it goes to different places in the inverse and the chaos that it there. The second half of the book is images of Jack Kirby creations and Alex Ross drawings of the characters that will appear in this series.
