Mister Miracle #13 came out a few months after the other Jack Kirby's companion Fourth World tiles were cancelled by DC Comics. Mister Miracle was the longest running Kirby Fourth World title, 18 issues. Sadly, they all ended too quickly.

I was introduced to Jack Kirby’s DC Fourth World titles with Mister Miracle #11, which I bought off the newsstand back in 1972. I also bought New Gods #10, which I loved, but the title was cancelled with issue #11. I never picked up Forever People or The Demon.
The comic begins with a freight train hurtling down the track, barreling towards the chained and bound Mister Miracle. As Oberon, Big Barda, and Ted Brown look on, the train draws ever nearer, until it's mass obscures the prone figure of Mister Miracle. Once the train passes, Mister Miracle is revealed, free of his bonds, standing on the other side of the tracks.
Pure Kirby magic!
