<title>Login required - All The Tropes</title>
'''Omega The Unknown''' was a short-lived yet influential comic created by [[Steve Gerber]] which ran for 10 issues (March, 1976-October, 1977). Tired of annoyingly plucky [[Kid Sidekick|boy sidekicks]], Gerber pitched it as a realistic portrayal of a young boy's life, but [[Stan Lee]] insisted on more supernatural elements and [[Executive Meddling|crossovers with in-universe heroes]]. However, Gerber ably worked around these restrictions, writing a fairly down-to-earth, emotionally-driven story about a young boy's difficult life. Sure he was raised (then [[Orphan's Ordeal|orphaned]]) by {{spoiler|[[Robotic Reveal|robots]]}} and had a [[Psychic Link]] with a [[Last of His Kind]] [[Human Alien|Alien]] superhero, but for all that, it can be surprisingly touching.

Gerber wrote about the kinds of small, difficult struggles which affect the average child, such as bullying, the death of a friend, getting along in a new place, and trying to understand the motivations of others. One of the unusual elements in the book was the realistic portrayal of Hell's Kitchen, complete with sex workers, drug addicts, the homeless, porno theaters, and roving muggers. These were sometimes played for humor, such as Bruce Banner lying in the gutter in his trademark torn purple pants while pedestrians step over him, disparaging him as a 'wino'.

The series was canceled mid-way through when Gerber entered a struggle with the publisher over creator's rights. Omega was summarily given to another writer, who killed off most of the characters in the pages of [[The Defenders]]. Gerber was eventually let go. Despite its short run, the comic proved influential and memorable amongst comic authors, who have praised Gerber as the forerunner to revolutionary authors like [[Alan Moore]] and [[Neil Gaiman]], who used comics to tackle serious issues, leading to the [[Darker and Grittier]] comics familiar to us today.

One author influenced by Gerber was [[Jonathan Lethem]], a MacArthur Grant-winning novelist who rebooted the series in 2007. When Gerber heard about Lethem's reboot, he reacted with anger and disbelief that someone who called themselves a fan of his would conspire with the company that he fought with so long to take away his creation and remake it, without so much as a by-your-leave. Gerber and Lethem later spoke, and Gerber softened his critique, typifying Lethem as naive and starry-eyed.

The new series also lasted for 10 issues (December, 2007-September, 2008). Lethem spent much of his run retelling Gerber's story, and then moved on to his own variations, thick with satire and hallucinogenic reality shifts. It's questionable how pertinent Lethem could be, when Gerber was writing a decade before the graphic novel revolution, and Lethem is writing the same story thirty years after the fact.
