True Believers: Annihilation - Omega the Unknown

In 2020, Marvel revived a cult-favorite oddity with this single-issue reprint, part of the "True Believers" line that made key stories accessible at a budget price. Originally crafted by writers Mary Skrenes and Steve Gerber with art by Jim Mooney, "Omega the Unknown" is a surreal, melancholy take on the superhero genre, following a silent, alien-raised boy and his enigmatic protector in a gritty New York City. This issue reprints a chapter from that short-lived 1970s series, offering a glimpse into one of Marvel's most idiosyncratic and quietly influential experiments.
