The moment I realized I prefer Jimmy as a genderqueer character.
I think I have to get this.

I just want to know why he's dressing up like Betty Brant from Spider-Man.
I wonder if ned Leeds has anything to tell us...

Terra's funeral at the end of the Judas Contract hit me pretty hard.

This climactic scene from NEW GODS #5: In the years since, we've seen plenty of instances where the creators try to depict a hero letting his savage side out, but I've never seen it done as effectively as Kirby did it here. In the first few issues, we were told that Orion was repressing a brutal nature, but the readers were utterly unprepared for this nearly sadistic celebration. Snuffing out someone's Mother Box, that artificially intelligent companion of the New Gods, then laughing uncontrollably, taunting the hideous Slig with the destruction of the one "being" that loved him? Gut-wrenchingly brutal stuff...and this guy's the hero of the book?! This is a page I would shove under the noses of people who say Kirby couldn't write, or that the Fourth World would have been so much better if someone else had scripted it. I can just imagine how Stan Lee would have watered this page down to maintain Orion's "heroic" stature.
