Ummm...you do realize that first picture is NOT Kirby?
In fact i believe that's the young Jim Steranko with art form AGENT X, a book he created for TOWER COMICS that was rejected. From there he went to Marvel and S.H.I.E.L.D.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

That's why they call him "King".
The best. I have a trading card set I got about 10 yrs ago devoted to him. All Kirby.
SWEEEET!

Actually it was called SUPER AGENT X. I'm told this picture of Jim originally ran in an issue of CASTLE OF FRANKENSTEIN back in 1965.
Thanks for telling me that. I will remove it and look for a Kirby one. You are right now that I look at it.
