"Les origines de Darkseid chapitre 1 : Apokolips jadis" launches a bold new era in the Legends series, with John Ostrander and Len Wein weaving a gripping tale illustrated by John Byrne, whose dynamic art is sharpened by Karl Kesel’s inks and Tom Ziuko’s vivid colors. The cover, also by Byrne, captures the intensity of a world where heroes are hunted, as Robin (Jason Todd) faces a furious mob after a desperate rescue, while Brimstone rises again to clash with a government-sanctioned Suicide Squad.
