cover

In Omac, writer/artist/editor Jack Kirby gave readers a glimpse of what he called "The World That is Coming!" It was a future world containing wild concepts that are almost frighteningly real today. Buddy Blank, a nondescript employee at Build-A-Friend factory Pseudo People Inc. was chosen by the Global Peace Agency to restore calm in a world that could not afford violence. Transformed into a super peacekeeper named OMAC (One Man Army Corps) by a sentient satellite, Blank destroyed Pseudo People Inc. - and his love, Lila, the "Build a friend" woman he was shocked to find was literally made for him. Kirby's futuristic adventure series ran for 8 issues.
