Kirby: Genesis #1 (Dynamite Comics, 2011) – Variant Cover

A cosmic, mythology-driven adventure begins as classic Kirby-inspired concepts are reimagined into a modern shared universe of gods, monsters, and reality-altering forces.

Inspired by the legacy of Jack Kirby, this series builds a large-scale sci-fi narrative where ancient cosmic powers begin to reawaken, drawing humanity into a rapidly expanding conflict beyond Earth’s understanding. As these forces emerge, the foundations of reality and myth begin to overlap.

Issue #1 introduces the core concept of this universe, establishing the emergence of powerful entities and the early stages of a cosmic restructuring that will reshape existence across multiple worlds.

This Variant Cover presents an alternate artistic interpretation of the series’ cosmic themes, emphasizing stylized heroic imagery and the expansive scale of its universe-building approach.

Epic science fiction, mythology, and adventure converge in this opening chapter of a universe shaped by imagination and cosmic evolution.
