Orion by Walter Simonson Omnibus
Release May 25, 2027
Part of the DC Omnibus guide — every release, in reading order
Legendary writer/artist Walter Simonson's interpretation of Jack Kirby's Fourth World cosmos is collected in full in this omnibus, now back in print!
Comic book legend Walter Simonson first gained fame for his stunning, unmistakable art. But Simonson is not only an award-winning artist, but an exceptionally talented storyteller as well.
Nowhere is this more evident than in his groundbreaking Orion. Expanding the beloved universe originally created by Jack Kirby, Simonson’s sprawling storylines and dynamic artwork elevate his titular hero, as well as the rest of the Fourth World’s indispensible characters, to incredible new heights.
Collected here for the first time are all twenty-five issues of Walter Simonson’s Orion as well as never-previously published short stories, pinups and sketch material. Collects Orion #1-25 and stories from Jack Kirby's Fourth World #9-11 and 13
