With the coming Final Crisis comics Mexican market by Editorial Vid, we told the story of how one of the most evil villains of Superman was definitely up to "The New Gods" (The new gods), their former enemies. We also realized that he used a weapon, spell or incantation (as they like to call it) called "anti-life equation" that although it showed the consequences of evil power is still not clear about the origin and history of this and for that we will review a few authors who have created, designed and even redesigned the famous equation.
The King and the executioner
Al transferred to the rival DC, Jack Kirby got more freedom to write when first starting with something small in the pages of Jimmy Olsen Superman's Ex Pal, but that does not mean it was insignificant because in this series created the villain Darkseid which will be discussed more thoroughly.
But above all one of his greatest creations was "The Fourth World" (the fourth world), where New Genesis Apokolips, Orion and many more characters were born and of course on the subject of this article "anti-life Equation was created"
Kirby described it as something abstract that enriched the complicated universe he created and that although This had appeared in a couple of comics has never been made clear its origin or character, it was only seen as an immense power that the ruler of Apokolips wished to death.
It was not until the writer Jim Starlin famous for being the author of many comics where characters die cosmic wrote a series called DC "Cosmic Odyssey" where the heroes of the Justice League with the New Gods and Darkseid fought the anti-life .
Starlin was based on the fourth world created by Kirby and explained that over millions of years at the beginning of the beginning of the universe was an alien race with advanced technology that lived peacefully, but nevertheless, since the pride they had to contact other living beings Smart decided to impose them, but seeing that the latter were not as helpless as they thought they decided to embark on a continuing quest for an ultimate weapon that could destroy these undesirable things. At the end of the equation was developed and AntiVir was released. However
was not the desired result because the energy that came off was so immense that destroyed the planet and the universe, then AntiVir wandered around the cosmos destroying what he saw in its path until after a eventually self-destructed and created an interdimensional gap where the planets New Genesis and Apokolips were born and were separated from the rest of the universe, that is why you can only reach them through tubes or boxes boom mother.
Many years later, the seeker of knowledge Metron decided to find the whereabouts of the anti-life as he crossed several parallel realities until they came into the world of antimatter which finally found to be that as it had been dead for thousands of years.
was there that he learned that the anti-life was not just a form of energy but a negative-living could not coexist in the positive universe was so well caught his power was unlimited and too powerful to escape, something they were after but with the help of Dr. Fate, Darkseid and Grand father (among others) was stopped.
whole history and origin that shows us in this saga was gradually being forgotten and how anti-life conceived Starlin was discarded.
There were other occasions where Darkside has become the master of the famous equation: Superman: The Darkside where blue Apokolips instead falls into the earth and is raised by Great Father in JLA: Rock of time at crawling distance achievements and thought control the human race with her because Darkside think every human mind there is a fragment of the anti-life.
Finally, there have been several times, but one of the best known is the one that occurred recently in the Final Crisis series. But first let's see how it all began.
Morrison DC to
Soledad + Fear + Despair + Alignment + Self-Esteem: Taunt: Sentencing: Misperception (culpa) (shame) (failure) (trial) N = y when Y = N = Madness hope
Lie Life = Love = Death I = dark side.
After the story The Death of the New Gods "apparently Orion mure" but returns later for a final battle with his father who was foretold by a prophecy that said that someday he would kill his Darkside Orion makes the heart wrenching but it seems that the essence of evil god is very strong through the walls of death and survives to be sent back where he met Pound and his followers. From there begins the plan to MTAR Orion with a bullet sent to the past, is not complicated? This is because his death is given in two different comics by a coordination failure: at the end of Countdown and the first issue of Final Crisis .
Darkside was then able to control the anti-life equation (obviously leaving out all the features that gave Starlin), with that might have feelings, emotions of human beings that helped create a fifth world on Earth. The only exception was Mr. Miracle Seven Soldiers who in was given the anti-life out of obligation but his mind refused, even after it is known that Metron was using to try one of the warriors who stop at Darkside. However
and how shall I say Superman: Orion's death was suicide Darkside and the same bullet that kills and the help of various flash the god of evil was stopped.
Some compare the EC with the Infinity Gems discussing which is the most powerful, obviously because the latter are able to control anything in this reality, but if you take into account the characteristics of Starlin Kirby and maybe the anti-life equation the greatest danger from the Anti DC.
Until next post!
