Jack Kirby, Jim Starlin, OMAC

Are you ready for the World That’s – Over?!? That’s right, after 8 classic issues, Jack Kirby brought OMAC to an end on a screaming cliff hanger. So, as a bonus to you, here is an 8-page Jim Starlin story that wraps up that cliff hanger and begins a new story. Too bad Jim Starlin didn’t stay on the series for long – it looks like he might have done the King proud! The OMAC back-up feature lasted 10 issues in Warlord in 1980. Jim Starlin later got another chance for a Kirby tribute when he wrote and drew The Death of the New Gods in 2007.

Origins of OMAC: Made of the Future; EC Comics

Tags

Al Feldstein, EC Comics, golden age, Jack Kirby, Made of the Future, OMAC, Weird Science

In the first issue of OMAC, we met Buddy Blank, a man in the future. He worked in a factory that created artificial lovers for lonely men and women. This masterwork arose purely from the vivid imagination of Jack Kirby…
Or did it?!

All the Kirby biographers and OMAC experts fail to mention this short story from EC Comics: Made of the Future. It features Alvin Blank, a man who travels to the future and procures an artificial wife. Al Feldstein’s signature appears on this tale from 1951, 23 years before the first issue of OMAC!

Collector’s Guide:
– From Weird Science #5; EC Comics, 1951.
Reprinted by Russ Cochran/Gemstone.– Dig the Weird Science Hardcover edition, and other Weird Science reprints available.

When you’re done, read more EC Comics in our EC Comics Gallery.

Where can you find EC Comics these days? Right here at Mars Will Send No More! We’ve got original EC Comics for the independently wealthy and some really solid EC Comics reprints by Russ Cochran/Gemstone for the rest of us working stiffs! Enjoy!
