About a week ago, an anon said he was up to the task of scanning the Jack Kirby Omnibuses so we can finally have them in good quality, since DC refuses to reprint them or release them digitally. Specifically we were talking about the Fourth World omnis and Demon.

Are you still here, anon? I'm willing to fucking pay you if necessary.
>>
I'm not that Anon but I'd also like to add that whoever does this will be a fucking hero.

I'm hoping they'll reprint it all once Darkseid shows up in the movies.
>>
I am the cheapest motherfucker ever and I refuse to buy any trade unless it's >$10 + shipping used on Amazon but holy fuck am I glad I bought these day one.
>>
>>85973193
Scan them, friend. We are all just as cheap as you.

>good quality

What does that even mean? If you can make out the characters and read the text than it's as good quality as it needs to be. It's not like your eyes are going to feel extra good if there are more details rendered in the images.

>>85974836
Are you retarded? Scans of old, tattered 70s comics look fucking awful. Kirby's work deserves clear linework and vivid color.
> It's not like your eyes are going to feel extra good if there are more details rendered in the images.
Yes they are you fucking clod. Thanks for the bump anyway.
>>
>>85974836
This is it, this is the dumbest post I've seen all day.

Reminder of the things in need of scans:

Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus (Volumes 1, 2, 3, 4)
Jack Kirby's The Demon
Jack Kirby Omnibus (Volumes 1, 2)
Kamandi: The Last Boy on Earth Omnibus (Volume 2 only)

Thankfully OMAC and Kamandi 1-27 have already been released digitally. There are still a few DC Kirby items uncollected, but nothing particularly essential.

If anyone, fucking ANYONE could scan even parts of these, everyone here would be eternally grateful.

>>85975828
There are already scans of the old issues of Demon widely available. What we're searching for is the high quality from the omnibus, I doubt you have that unless you scanned it yourself. You could open the file or post a page to make sure.

It's better than a lot of stuff from the same era, but sadly those scans are pretty available in MTCDC and elsewhere. Obviously you can still share. I'm sure some people haven't read them.

That would be great given that the version of the Hunger Dogs in the Omnibus is different.
>>
>>85978144
how so?
>>
>>85978060

His threads get plenty of attention. This isn't a discussion thread, it's just two anons begging someone to devote hours of their life to scanning for them because they're cheap.
>>
>>85978170
The foreward the version mentions that they used pages that Kirby had to remove/modify to fit into the OGN format it was eventually released as in the 80's.

So the omnibus is the clearer intent Kirby had.
>>
>>85978208
it really isn't as simple as them being cheap - I have them, and even though I got volumes 1,3, and 4 for 40AUD each they still ended up being incredibly expensive - I had to drop 110 AUD on volume 2 alone, and that's if you can find the fucking things.

There's already pretty good scans out of most of it.
>>
>>85975621
Well since the movies are going to be using New Gods, maybe DC will reprint them in a better format. Absolute Fourth World would be boner inducing.
>>
>>85978681

I'm not sure what you could possibly ask for more than the Omnibus collections
>>
>>85978962
The omni's are OOP and extremely hard to find. If they were readily available I'd have bought them all already. DC needs to reprint that stuff.
>>
>>85978273
So I'm guessing you don't want to scan them?

>>85978658
There are only good scans of New Gods because they were reprinted in the 80s. Forever People, Mister Miracle, Jimmy Olsen, and Super Powers are still shitty yellow semen stained 70s issue scans.

It's from the deluxe reprints in the 80s. As stated earlier, only New Gods got this treatment, and it's misleading to imply otherwise.

Now I need to buy 2 and 4 lol. It's been years.

I bought The Demon omni when it first came out and I'm not impressed with the paper quality. It's printed on pulpy paper with no glossy finish.

I know OMAC and Kamandi were released in DC Archive format so I would check if New Gods and The Demon are too before I blow money on an omnibus.

>>85975773
>>85975828

>>85975993
The thing about The Demon Omnibus is that Kirby's cut pages are inked, colored and reinserted into the story. You can't get them anywhere else.

I hope the Fourth World Omnibuses don't have extras like that that I'd be missing out on.
>>
Can't get over how expensive these all are.
Holy shit.
>>
>>85975047
I KNOW, THAT'S WHY I'M SO SAD!
>>
>>85981763
Kamandi was the only one to get the archive treatment. The first is going for around 75$ snd the second isvat cover price, but between them it only covers issurs 1-20.
People are split in their opinion of the paper on the omnis. I lke it, personally. The original comics didn't have a glossy finish either.
>>
>>85981763

The New God Omnibus are on pulpy paper which I prefer by far.

The glossy paper like in the early Marvel Masterworks holds up well but it completely sterilizes the color and makes it look digital like a MS Paintcan filled the panels. These comics were created to be on paper so keep them on paper. The ink is supposed to bleed and the colors are supposed to be warm. These are comics. They even smell like comics.
>>
>>85979868
is this all 4 or just 1
>>
>>85981763
Are you retarded? Old comics should NEVER be done on glossy paper. Honestly no comics should. It obscures all the detail and needlessly inflates the price. If you're too much of an asshole to properly store to avoid yellowing, that's your fault.
>>

>>85994963
Hunger Dogs
Simonson Orion
Final Crisis

That's about it honestly. No other writers have done the New Gods well since Kirby other than Simonson and Morrison. Jim Starlin and Mike Mignola did a book called Cosmic Odyssey, but I haven't read it so I don't know if it's any good.

what a sad garbage person
>>
>>85995137
I think Morrison's the only one that really handles the god aspect of them all that well rather than just treating them like magic space superheroes. That and no one else seems to want to let the premise evolve the way it was meant to.
>>
>>85995613
Morrison is okay, but I don't think he really gets them either. Or maybe it's that he treats all the supers like gods and the Kirby stuff doesn't stand out very well.

>I think Morrison's the only one that really handles the god aspect of them all that well rather than just treating them like magic space superheroes
Agreed.

I don't think he fully understands them, but he gets them a hell of a lot better than most other writers.

>>85995810
I agree with that. And his Darkseid isn't fascistic enough. He definitely concentrates a bit TOO much on the fact that he's an actual god of evil. He needs to turn up the tyranny aspect of him.

I really wish we'd get a New Gods ongoing written by Morrison though. Let him explore the entirety of the Fourth World mythos. He does focus a lot on Darkseid but he at least remembers about other, virtually unused aspects of the New Gods.
