Notes

Collects: Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen (DC, 1954 series) #133-139 and 141-148, The Forever People (DC, 1971 series) #1-11, The New Gods (DC, 1971 series) #1-11, Mister Miracle (DC, 1971 series) #1-18, New Gods (DC, 1984 reprint series #1-6 (covers only #1-5, includes a new story from #6), DC Graphic Novel (DC, 1983 series) #4: The Hunger Dogs, and selected pages from Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe #2-3, 6, 8-18, 20, 22, and 25.

There is a printing error with the first printing of this omnibus. Page 4 of the story from Jimmy Olsen #148 (page 943 of the Omnibus) is not the correct page, instead printed in its place is page 4 of the story from Jimmy Olsen #147, which also appears in its correct place (page 864 of the Omnibus). DC issued a second printing in March 2018 that corrected this error. Purchasers of the erroneous first edition were given an opportunity to return their copy to get a free replacement with the corrected second printing. Note: the second printing has the same ISBN number and barcode as the first printing, the only way to differentiate between the printings is on the indicia page.

Second printing available April 4, 2018 (per comiclist.com).
