    Orion The Gates Of Apokolips TP


    View Larger Image | Email Page to Friend
    In one of the greatest comic-book battles since Superman vs. Doomsday, the ultimate warrior of New Genesis confronts his father, the master of Apokolips in ORION: THE GATES OF APOKOLIPS, a 144-page trade paperback reflecting the stylish vision of ORION writer/artist Walter Simonson (MANHUNTER: THE SPECIAL EDITION, Thor). THE GATES OF APOKOLIPS begins in a small, unassuming town in Nebraska, where things have gone very, very wrong. The townsfolk have had their minds wiped clean of everything - except for a single, terrible symbol. Together, they are being made to reveal the universe's most unholy prize - the Anti-Life Equation! But the ex-Justice Leaguer known as Orion, now questioning whether Darkseid is truly his father, has followed the leader of Apokolips to this small town to stop him from acquiring the Equation. Orion's ultimate goal: to honor his mother's demand for revenge...with the death of Darkseid! With the Newsboy Legion in tow, Orion soon is headed back to the realm of the Fourth World, where the entire host of New Genesis and Apokolips have gathered in the Firepits to witness the long-awaited battle between the two powerful New Gods. But only one will walk away alive! Collecting issues #1-5 of the hit ORION series, THE GATES OF APOKOLIPS also includes the two Tales of the New Gods backup stories from issues #3 (illustrated by Frank Miller) and #4 (illustrated by Dave Gibbons), which shed more light on the story of Tigra, Orion's mother, and Orion's ultimate origin. Plus, two bonus stories: Goodness and Mercy from SECRET ORIGINS OF SUPER-VILLAINS 80-PAGE GIANT #1 (written by Simonson, with art by Jon Bogdanove & Bill Reinhold), which tells the origin of Apokolips's feared Granny Goodness, and Carnival in Armagetto from LEGENDS OF THE DC UNIVERSE 80-PAGE GIANT #2 (written by Simonson, with art by Klaus Janson), a tale of a small act of hope and beauty in the desolation of Apokolips. ORION: THE GATES OF APOKOLIPS is a 144-page trade paperback.
