American Update: 1st App. Darkseid – Jimmy Olsen #134 by Kirby VF+
*DC: Having quite startlingly revitalised the moribund Jimmy Olsen title with #133, writer/artist Jack Kirby took it up a notch by introducing Darkseid, the fiendish ruler of the hell-world Apokolips, in the very next issue. It was only a fleeting cameo – Darkseid’s image flashes up on a monitor screen while Facetiming with Morgan Edge – but it’s nevertheless the first appearance of the villainous fulcrum of the entire Fourth World Saga, and as such is in high demand. Our new copy of Jimmy #134 is a gleaming VF+ copy, small pence price stamp, with only very light corner wear which does not impair the striking Neal Adams cover image. Tight staples, and off-white flexible interior pages. This highly desirable copy of a zooming-up key debut is on sale at VF+ p £300.
