About this Collection

This deluxe edition collects the 1988 DC miniseries Cosmic Odyssey, a cosmic-scale story written by Jim Starlin with art by Mike Mignola. The narrative follows a group of DC heroes, including Batman, Superman, and the New Gods, as they race to prevent an ancient entity from destroying the universe. This oversized hardcover features restored artwork and additional behind-the-scenes material, offering a definitive presentation of the classic space opera.

"Book One: Discovery" from Cosmic Odyssey: The Deluxe Edition (2017) brings together iconic DC heroes in a high-stakes cosmic journey, with Jim Starlin’s writing and Mike Mignola’s striking art shaping a story where Superman and Orion face hostile Hawkmen on Thanagar, while Batman and Forager navigate Earth’s shifting dangers. As Lightray and Starfire join Adam Strange on Rann to hunt the Equation Bomb, J’Onn and John’s mission to Xanshi ends in tragedy due to a Guardian’s hubris—setting the stage for Jason Blood’s transformation into The Demon in a desperate bid to confront the Anti-Life Equation.
