This particular comic was written in the honor/memory of a woman who was leaving DC comics.



I read it in the mid-80's so it can't be newer than that.



It was about the history of humans but (if I remember correctly) it started in the modern time period. It showed (or at least mentioned) the destruction of successive human civilizations until some distant part in the future where everything "collapsed" (for lack of better word) and after multiple iterations in the end there appeared an "Adam" and "Eve" to start humankind anew.



Somewhere between "here" (our current era) and "the end" humankind had attained a sophisticated level of civilization without warfare. At that point the storyline showed some young guy leaving his parents in order to study on Mars or something like that.



What story was this?
