Notes
- Final issue.
- After the reset, Kamandi's story chronologically continues in the Justice/Doom War storyline.
- The real in-universe identity of the "Jack Kirby" from this issue has never been revealed.
- However, "Kirby" saying that "he has to create other worlds" suggests that it actually is The Source of All Existence which was originally created by Jack Kirby.
Trivia
- The introduction page of Kamanda is a homage to the cover of Kamandi #1.
- Jack Kirby carves "J+R Forever" in a tree, obvious reference to his wife Rosalind Goldstein.
