10 Insane Times Superheroes Teamed Up With Their Worst Enemies

9. New Genesis & Apokolips - Cosmic Odyssey

Jim Starlin and Mike Mignola's Cosmic Odyssey is a brilliant comic book, and one that roots itself squarely in the mythos created by Jack Kirby during his time at DC.

When Kirby left the House of Ideas (Marvel) for their biggest rival (DC), he set about creating what many have considered to be his finest work: the Fourth World Saga. In it, he created a world of New Gods, positioning two planets diametrically opposed to each other - one representing all that was good in the universe (New Genesis), and the other, all that was evil (Apokolips).

This was where the likes of Darkseid, Orion, Mister Miracle and Metron were all born, but even after Kirby packed his bags once again, other DC staffers were keen to explore the mythos further. One such writer was Jim Starlin, and in Cosmic Odyssey, he chose to integrate Kirby's Fourth World with the DC Universe proper.

In it, Starlin united the forces of not only New Genesis and Apokolips, but that of the Justice League too. It makes for one of the most epic stories in DC's library, and one the discerning fan can't do without.
