Happy Birthday To Jack “The King” Kirby (1917-1994)

 
 





More talent in his little finger than most of those who came after him. He truly was the Master of the comic art form and rewrote the book on how to illustrate the superhero.

You have to put that omnibus down after about an hour I find. Just too much to look at.

Thanks for the kind words, J-swin and your continued kind words. Makes me work harder to make this blog better and not just a fancy Tumblr page. Maybe sometimes I post too many images and overwhelm with my prolific nature. It's just the way I think. It's my style and I am kinda proud of the results. Someday, someone with influence will see my blof and pay me for the effort.
