"WAR. AN ART THAT, WITH ONE FINISHING STROKE. I FINALLY MASTERED."

PIC(S) INFO: Part 1 of 2 -- Spotlight on the introduction to planet Apokolips and the heavy reveal that Orion, former champion of New Genesis and Darkseid's son, has become the new ruler of the hellish world (now also eerily resembling his late father), from "Kingdom Come" Vol. 1 #2. June, 1996. DC Comics. Artwork by Alex Ross.

"War. An art that, with one finishing stroke. I finally mastered... but to what ultimate triumph? Apokolips is still helpless with those who cannot... will not... help themselves. Often have I considered uprooting the more aberrant lowelies... exiling them to some distant orb... but it seems unconscionable to inflict such grievous wounds on another planet. I'm sure you agree."

-- ORION, new ruler of planet Apokolips, to Superman (Earth-22)
