You’ll have Jason Blood on your hands… Remarkably, Jack Kirby has only gotten a couple of Absolute Editions from DC over the years, both centering on the Fourth World. That’s set to change in the late summer of 2026 with the anticipated publication of The Demon by Jack Kirby: Absolute Edition. Dig the info, tucked into DC’s latest solicitations: THE DEMON BY JACK KIRBY: ABSOLUTE EDITION Written by JACK KIRBY Art and cover by JACK KIRBY Part man, part elemental fury, Etrigan the Demon was bound to Jason Blood by Merlin to defend Camelot!
