The OMAC Project #1 (of 6) — DC Comics Jun 2005, Infinite Crisis Lead-In — Rucka & Saiz (Single Issue)

Six months until everything changes. The OMAC Project #1 is the Infinite Crisis lead-in that put Batman's surveillance paranoia front and center — Brother Eye is watching, Checkmate is moving, and the DC Universe is about to find out what happens when the world's greatest detective stops trusting everyone. Published June 2005 at $2.50 US, Direct Sales. Written by Greg Rucka, art by Jesus Saiz. The cover — Batman silhouetted inside a giant mechanical eye against deep space — is one of the most iconic Infinite Crisis era images. The "6 Months Until Infinite Crisis" countdown banner makes this a certified event artifact.

Why Collectors Love It:

The OMAC Project is the Infinite Crisis tie-in that aged the best — Rucka's Checkmate espionage framework and the Brother Eye premise hit differently in a post-surveillance-state world, and this is where it starts. Issue #1 is the series opener and the most sought issue of the run. The Nintendo DS interior ad — "Touching is Good" — and the Fox Animation Domination back cover — Homer, Hank Hill, Peter Griffin, and Stewie all sharing a page with a DC espionage thriller — is 2005 in a single spread.

Condition Notes:

Shows wear consistent with age — expect spine stress and corner wear as shown in photos. Interior pages bright with solid color retention. Bagged for protection.

Perfect For:

Infinite Crisis run completists, Greg Rucka DC era collectors, Checkmate series hunters, Brother Eye origin chasers, and anyone who has ever wondered what Batman's surveillance network looks like when it goes fully autonomous and found the answer significantly more unsettling than the question.
