World Without End is a six-issue comic book limited series, created by Jamie Delano and illustrated by John Higgins, released by DC Comics in 1990.
Publication history
Delano created the series between his run on Hellblazer and Animal Man.
Delano has said:
After four years of Hellblazer, we felt like an opportunity to cut lose into a world of outrageous language and sumptuous imagery… and no-one held us back. The scenario of the story is fantastical and allegorical rather than speculatively futuristic. I guess its themes are more broadly philosophical than some of the specific socio/political trends I have engaged with through the more near-future settings of works such as 2020 Visions, Hellblazer: Bad Blood and Narcopolis, etc.
Plot summary
The story involves a battle of the sexes in the future.
Reception
Black Gate magazine described the series as "everything comics have the potential to achieve…a psychic thought-bomb of words and pictures that blew my mind to bloody smithereens". They finished their review by saying that World Without End is:
A science fiction allegory mixed with fantasy adventure, told with style and skill that any comic creator has to envy. It’s a glorious, mad excursion into a world of erotic dreams and brutal nightmares. Jamie Delano’s power to evoke an entirely strange world ranks with that of sci-fi grandmaster Jack Vance. John Higgins’ stunning paints, his storytelling ability, his dynamic use of color to create surreal moods and absurd realities, it’s all the stuff of legend.
Collected editions
Dover Books has collected the series into a single volume with an afterword by Stephen R. Bissette:
