Summary: Disappointing
Comment: I had really looked forward to this. When this first came out, Byrne was near the top of his game and he was combining the New Gods with Galactus and the Silver Sufer. Unfortunately, the final product proved to be kind of sloppy. First, the Silver Surfer's entire purpose is to find worlds suitable for Galactus to consume and for some reason he couldn't tell that Apokolips didn't meet the basic criteria. That just sort of ruined the whole thing for me. Second, and less important, is that the Surfer is portrayed as too powerful for Orion to defeat. Based on my familiarity with both characters from years of reading comics, I'd have done it the other way around, with Orion pretty much mopping the floor with the Surfer.
Artwork is very good, which sort of makes up for the glaring problem with the story I mentioned above. Worth having on the shelf, if only for Byrne's respectful treatment of Jack Kirby's amazing creations.

Summary: an unusual cross-over
Comment: The story takes place in the days when Silver Surfer was still Galactus' herald. Darkseid amasses a force against Galactus unlike when the latter came to Earth and all there was to fight him were the Fantastic Four. Good premise with the promise of a big showdown between Galactus and Darkseid. Only problem is that the story and characters just seem to go through their paces and the art seems lumbering toward the end. The status quo is changed back to what it was in the beginning. There are a few surprises like Silver Surfer rebelling against Galactus and the New Gods stepping back and hoping that Galactus destroys Darkseid and his world. This book should shine but doesn't but would be a shame to ignore it, either. A must for fans of Jack Kirby's characters.

Summary: SPACE THE FINAL FRONTIER.
Comment: The work is wonderful because it uses characters created by the late great Jack "King" Kirby. The creations are rendered my the master John Byrne. The work shows how dastardly Darkseid really is and how powerful Galactus is in the universe. Please try to find this book. It incredible.
