Six Million Kirby

Naw, he's priceless.

A Kirby slice of Kubrick

From the stunning but quite different 2001 marvel adaption (oddly from 1971). Still a pairing not to miss.

Literature upon literature, a titan against a titan. Also, an interesting read
(the climax from Captain America Comics #10, 1942 where they stole from whatever literature they felt like).

From a random reprint in Harvey comics. So much creativity in so few panels.

Gave I mentioned recently how much I love Kirby's work? Amazing, even without entirely being pencils

I just liked Kirby's use of perspective and size here; thought I would share it with you.

It came out of Kirby!

A friend sent me this can, thinking I would enjoy it. I did.

Forever Kirby

From Forever People #3 (1971)

Three Times with Not Brand Echh(and Asifa)

I just can't get enough of this comic, can you?I love Kirby's faces, Lee's hilarious dialogue and all the other qualities that make this the biggest in-joke parody ever made. It's the best one too. Don't forget to ask for more at Aisfa.

Kinski and Kirby: pleasures in negativeland

I oringinally found out about(and was just solely link to) this site's post on warren horror magazines but then I also found out its views on mavel horror mags, kinski vs. kirby and the above picture.

Whereas most blogs I like two to three things and link to those articles, I acutally enjoy almost everything of the soon to be named blog. And I think anyone who shares this blog's taste will as well.

Enjoy negative pleasure

Not Brand Echh Number 1(with Asifa Archive)

The great Archive has put up part of one of the greatest comics series of all time, Not Brand Echh. This is a sure way to start a Marvel humor comic, featuring the talents of its two creators --Stan Lee and Jack Kirby-- making fun of the first Marvel title. Hurry and support it. This way we can see more from them. I know I'll be asking.

Monster Blog (w/Kirby Monsters Never Reprinted)

[Above Image by Steve Ditko, one of many featured monster artists, all else by Jack Kirby]

And now for something completely different. Well, not really. It's just that I've lavished words upon an talented writer, so I consider it appropriate to say something about an impeccable artist: Jack Kirby. More known for his dynamic superheroes, this former animator turned legend also did some great monster stories reprinted here. Be sure to note that while a majority of them are on . . . Never Reprinted Page, there are also many other great covers and stories hidden elsewhere.

And now for a bit of humble pie. When I first saw Kirby, I didn't like him. At that point all I knew was the "pretty, realistic" formula set up by Disney, and any deviation--and Kirby does so wildly--I snubbed my nose at. I guess I did so to give myself a sense of superiority, which as wrongly deserved. In recent years, thanks to the words of Jim Smith and others, as well as personnel mind expansion, I have come to see what a great, innovative, cartoony and manly artist Kirby was and is. So I ask, can you forgive me my youthful indiscretion, King? Will ya?


Thanks, pal.

(P.S.: All covers can also be seen at http://www.comics.org/index.lasso, in bigger sizes too).

Enjoy!
