(What other rationale could one have for such a garish, colorful costume than show business?!) His first foe: the powerful Intergang mobster Steel Hand. Intergang (human gangsters armed with Apokoliptian technology) figured prominently in Kirby's Fourth World (especially New Gods); they first appeared in Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen 133 (Oct 1970), the first series Kirby took over when he came to DC in the late '60s.

This issue introduces one of the great Fourth World villains, the malevolent Granny Goodness (another great play on words for a Kirby character), who raised Scott Free in her "orphanage" for the training of Darkseid's soldiers. Scott is the only person ever to escape its grip. (less...)
