The New Gods Vol. 1: The Falling Sky

Following the death of Darkseid, a cosmos-shattering prophecy begins as Ram V and Evan Cagle reshape the mythology of the DC Universe!

An old god has died, and the reverberations of his passing are felt across the stars, awakening the latent powers of a mysterious child on Earth. This has all been foreseen—prophesized by the Source and fed as enigmatic images to its agent, Metron. As Metron brings word of this prediction to New Genesis and Apokolips, both worlds are thrown into total chaos.

On Earth, Scott Free and Barda find themselves unaware of the incoming storm while consumed with their most daunting task yet: parenthood. The visionary team of writer Ram V (The Many Deaths of Laila Starr) and artist Evan Cagle (Superman and the Authority) bring Jack Kirby’s Fourth World to a whole new generation in an epic of cosmic proportions.

Collects The New Gods #1–6. This volume serves as a vital bridge between the DC Universe and the Absolute Universe as part of the DC All In initiative. An old god has died... the New Gods are born!
