Once I realized Kirby was kind of making it up as he went and the plot is pretty much incomprehensible I was able to appreciate this amazing volume for the insane torrent of creativity it is. Bold cartooning, a cast of thousands and enough ideas to fuel fifty summer blockbusters!

This collection spans a story too big to give an all encompassing rating to, in my humble opinion, so I'll just say that holy crap I've finally finished reading all of Jack Kirby's The Fourth World.
It was really good. I liked some parts more than others. The ending wasn't super satisfying, but I knew it wasn't going to be going into it.
Maybe Final Crisis will make a little more sense now.

Jack Kirby's Magnum Ops in its full entirety is a brilliant, weird, odd and fully exploration of the comic medium as whole, the classic story of gods doing battles and good vs evil.
