DC Comics Presents: Jack Kirby Omnibus Sampler #1
A mysterious actress with bandaged features and a claim of immortality draws Jay Hamilton into a strange mystery in "The Three Prophecies," a standout tale from the Jack Kirby Omnibus Sampler. Written by Ed Herron and illustrated with Kirby’s signature dynamism by Jack Kirby himself—both inks and pencils—this story blends surreal fantasy and deception, culminating in a twist that redefines the line between magic and illusion. The cover, also by Kirby, captures the tale’s enigmatic tone with its bold, otherworldly design.

Jay Hamilton woos an actress who spends each night with her face covered in bandages. She claims to be 300 years old and to have a magic potion that keeps her young for a short period of time. Since she has run out of the potion, Jay and his father accompany her to meet the sorcerer who sells her the elixir, but Zoe Ann admits it's all a scam and the men turn the "sorcerer" over to the police.
