New Gods #15

New Gods number 15 was published by DC Comics in 1978 as part of the series' brief revival. Following the original 1971-1972 run by Jack Kirby, which concluded abruptly, this issue arrived during a period where DC sought to reintegrate the Fourth World characters into the broader DC Universe continuity. The editorial team at the time aimed to maintain the cosmic scale established by Kirby while adapting the narrative style to match the late-seventies aesthetic of DC's titles.

The issue features cover art and interior work reflecting the transitional nature of this creative era. While it lacks the singular singular vision of Kirby's initial run, it remains a notable artifact for its attempts to flesh out the complex mythos of Apokolips and New Genesis for a new generation of readers. The reception was largely defined by the intense nostalgia surrounding the Fourth World, making such issues highly scrutinized by followers of Kirby's original vision.
