CREATIVE TEAM: PETER J. TOMASI & NEAL ADAMS
SEE YOU THEN!
Jace Cooper
He went to robot school man.
Leo Sanders
so this is didio's excuse to why he rejected paul pope's pitch in a rude way
Hudson Rivera
i was reading this thinking, man it must take so much to coordinate all the writers and artists to tell the story and then i remembered the point was to keep doing cliffhangers and wild stuff
Jaxson Price
This seems more like a bullshit excuse
Jeremiah Barnes
>rover and kirby
Ha.
Hudson King
That was 8 years ago
Christopher Barnes
you're right, I wonder how many pitches have been rejected since then
I know Busiek did one
Colton Perry
Bump
Blake Bell
Thanks
Bentley Brooks
Kek, I thought Ellis was writing Kamandi for a second. I feel much better, now.
Thanks OP
Dylan Smith
God damn this is fun. More people should be reading this. Please don't flop.
I really like how Didio would've continued his story. Gonna be really interesting to see all the differences between what the first writers planned and how the next writers actually solve it.
Matthew Brooks
>To be continue in the very next page
I laughted.
Elijah Bailey
>Robot Jack Kirby beating up a rat man
Off to a great start

>I need to complete this The Kamandi Challende or else I really will be Kamandi: The last boy on earth (tm) created by Jack Kirby.
Angel Nguyen
That symbol... is it Brother Eye?
Sebastian Walker
Probably.
In the original Kamandi, it was retconned that his grandad was Buddy Blank.
And the portal that Kamandi's granma here looked like the representation of Brother Eye that Didio and Giffen used for their OMAC series.
Samuel Miller
Whoa.
Jordan Bennett
>I CAN SI~NG!
Luis Cox
>PRINCE TUFAN! PRINCE TUFAN!
Dominic James
Have you ever seen a rocket like that up close
Logan Ward
Anybody else kind of wish DC finished collecting the original Kamandi past where Kirby left the book? It feels wierd owning two omnibus' with the ending relatively close.
Isaiah Rodriguez
Before I dig in and read, is this a totally new take on Kamandi, or does it follow up after any previous stories?
Hunter Jones
Seems to be totally new (but there could always be some kind of twist)
Sebastian Anderson
New take
Austin Reyes
Cool. I've had the two omibus sitting around since they came out, but I'm retarded and haven't gotten to them. So I can knock this out quick and not feel too guilty.
Side question: Is DiDio and Giffen's OMAC canon to this? This thread makes me think there's an implication of that.
Grayson Parker
There's a slight visual implication in Didio and Giffen's prologue...but that could just be because they worked on it haha.
I'd love it though.
Aaron Rivera
>NEAL ADAMS
Fuck Yeah
Jonathan Martinez
>Grandma Iris
Gee, I wonder what her connection to Brother Eye could be.
James Johnson
bump
Adam Scott
Yeah, OMAC is obviously implicated here
Nathaniel Gutierrez
Tom King's story is going to feature the Atomic Knights, mark my words.
Michael Lee
Anyone else finds this comic... oddly arousing?
Camden Johnson
You might be a furry, bro.
Benjamin Turner
doesn't matter if it will flop. This is DC's tribute to 100 years of King Kirby. While of course Marvel is another fucking shitty event and variants.
Blake Green
Anyone feel like this is gonna be canon to Jack Kirby-verse of Multiversity?
Mason James
get out you furry freak.
Wyatt James
I know they'll at least put out all of this. But I was hoping that if it did well enough maybe we'd actually get an on-going.
Jaxon Johnson
Cheers
Luke Sanchez
So Kamandi was educated in virtual reality and has a grandmother named Iris.
This is all sounding very familiar...
Benjamin Edwards
All he lacks is the super speed and the lack of attention.
Anthony Wright
Is it because he never wears a shirt.
Adam Perry
The one that dies in the very first Kirby issue?

Ethan Collins
Yes.
Poor Buddy.
Daniel Bell
>That Rockafort cover
NHHHHHGGHHH
Levi Ramirez
no all creative teams got picked out of a hat besides one
Adam Peterson
bumping
Ryder Sanders
Bump, pretty good read
Nathaniel Perez
Oh man I really like this. For any fan of superhero comics who knows all the creators and their quirks, this is super great. Getting to see what they come up with and how they deal with different situations. I'm so glad this exists!
Parker Clark
There wasn't really any animosity as confirmed by Pope in his interview with Newsarama. They really just didn't want people to write Kamandi.
>"At the time, Kamandi was sort of a guarded character. Pretty much everybody wanted to work on Kamandi. And they told me that the marketing structure, which I can now see from working with Macmillan and First Second, you know, you have to know your audience, and they basically said, “you know, the marketing’s not in place for the audience you’re thinking of aiming this project toward.”
>They said, “For us, when we think of all-ages comics, we think of these licensed comics, we have Scooby-Doo and Space Ghost and Bugs Bunny.”
>To me, it was sort of like this realization that it would be very difficult to have this kind of project unfold successfully– and this conversation goes back to 2005 or so, so this is before “New 52” and new editorial directions and all this other stuff."
>"The closest we came to doing the kind of project I was hoping to do was my Adam Strange story in Wednesday Comics. It has all the elements I wanted, the kind of weird verve of those old comics that I love and aspire toward. I consider that all-ages. And that book did really well.
>So there’s no animosity there. And if you read the transcript, especially a line or two that’s taken out of context of the larger discussion, and just focus on a sarcastic, caustic comment…that comment wasn’t intended to be mean-spirited. It wasn’t me hammering my shoe on the table, “We will bury you!” kind of thing."
>And I just wanted to say that, because I have friends at DC, and I don’t like ad hominem attacks. And I don’t want to get into a sparring match when there’s not going to be a winner, you know?
