Key Facts

1st full appearance of Darkseid

1st team appearance of The Forever People: Beautiful Dreamer, Mark Moonrider, Serifan, Big Bear, Vykin the Black

First mention of Mother Boxes, sentient supercomputers of vast power and the Anti-Life Equation

1st appearance of Infinity-Man, a protector of The Forever People

✅ Nick's Picks: Darkseid Is...still very probable to enter the live-action scene as a primary antagonist yet his first real appearance, in full, is undervalued

The Absolute Universe which has been extremely successful early, was build on Darkseid energy so the villain is bound to make an appearance in a big way as the story arc moves ahead

A 9.8 of Forever People #1 sold in August for $2,640 versus Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen 9.8 for $16,200 in 2020

Granted, there are 80 copies in 9.8 of Forever People versus 12 in 9.8 of Jimmy Olsen but the cameo is unsatisfying as a first appearance (tap cover and swipe to view) considering he looks more like Ram Man from He-Man instead of the ruler of Apokolips

Overall, graded and ungraded copies of this issue are approximately 70% less expensive than #134
