"Le combat de Kalibak" sees Orion, wielder of the Astro Force, drawn from New Genesis by High-Father and guided by Metron to confront a dire threat: Darkseid, now on Earth preparing to mind-scan humanity in search of the Anti-Life Equation. With the help of freed captives Lanza, Shane, Lincoln, and Lockman, Orion races to stop Darkseid’s plan, unaware of the full scope of the war to come. Written and illustrated by Jack Kirby, with inks by Vince Colletta, this 1985 issue from Comics Parade #2 delivers a pivotal moment in the New Gods saga, all wrapped in a cover by Jack Kirby.
In "Le combat de Kalibak," Orion—wielder of the Astro Force—races against time after being summoned to New Genesis by High-Father, guided by Metron and bound to a mission from the Source. Sent to Apokolips, he uncovers Darkseid’s plan to conquer Earth by mind-scanning every human in search of the Anti-Life Equation, freeing Lanza, Shane, Lincoln, and Lockman before fleeing to the planet below.
In "Chasse à l'homme," Adrian Chase—once the relentless Vigilante—faces a crisis of conscience when his past conviction of a man named Kord is overturned, revealing a shocking truth. After tracking down Kord and exacting brutal justice, he's forced to confront the cost of his crusade when the man's innocence is proven. The story follows his brief retreat into the legal world, only to find that justice isn't so simple—and that some battles can't be won with a badge or a fist.
In "Revirement," the Vigilante confronts a man who once shattered J.J.'s life, driving his fiancée to madness—only to find his path blocked by Cyborg of the Teen Titans, drawn into the conflict when authorities intervene. As the tension escalates, the Vigilante gains the upper hand, but in a moment of reckoning, he hesitates, choosing confession over execution. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, exploring the weight of vengeance and the fragile line between justice and retribution.
Rik and his friends, deemed unfit for the Centauri army, forge an unlikely alliance with three clones and a Sauroid spy to take control of their fate—on a planet where loyalty is a weapon and every choice could be someone else’s design.
