We are introduced to Orion and his world of New Genesis, a utopian world, in constant battle with a warlike planet called Apokolips, ruled by the overlord Darkseid. This evil being also happens to be Orion’s dad, and the two do battle for the serie run. This cosmic series was Kirby jumping over to DC, from his co-creations at Marvel that he did with Stan Lee, of which he was never properly credited. Many have said George Lucas was heavily influenced by these comics while in college, and applied this to Luke and Darth Vader’s father/son relationship. Would this comic book series best make the translation to film or television, animated or live action? Twitter Questions
