Cosmic Odyssey #1
"Book One: Discovery" kicks off a cosmic-scale crisis in Cosmic Odyssey #1 (1988), where Jim Starlin's bold vision brings together Superman, Batman, Starfire, J'onn J'onzz, Green Lantern John Stewart, and Jason Blood to confront the terrifying Anti-Life Equation unleashed by Metron. With Mike Mignola's striking art and Carlos Garzón's dynamic inks shaping the epic scope, the heroes are scattered across the universe to prevent specific worlds from collapsing—each mission a desperate race against oblivion. The cover, a bold collaboration by Mignola in both pencils and inks, captures the weight of the moment.
