Jack would have been 100 today! What's your favorite King-related OA? 0

[Flambit]

My absolute favorite piece of art is Captain America 212, but I do love FF 200!

I'm partial to Kirby's Celestials

Yeah. I'm so sad I didn't make this happen when it made rational financial sense. But those that did - you are blessed and lucky

[Twanj]

I like this one.

@vodou Does that mean you had chances to purchase Kirby Celestials OA but passed on them? If so, would you mind sharing which pages and what the prices were?

I've only ever seen OA of the above two pages and these surface:

I meant Kirby Celestials (via Eternals) 'in general'. They haven't made $$ sense to me since the early oughts, but twenty years ago all 70s post-4th World Kirby was trash and you just had to stoop down to pick it up. Books were still complete back then which means...you could do that too. Having been there and not made the move, I'm little drawn to swapping a new Smart car for a really nice example today!

Can someone post the splash of the eating hall in Valhalla (?) from Thor?

 

 

 

[suspense39]

this is great, from Kirby's dip into underground(ish) work

If you look at my Instagram, @glenqgold, I posted about 50 of my favorite Kirby images yesterday.

Is this the "eating hall" splash you were looking for, Twanj?

[Knightsofold]

I love this one.  Dunno if it was ever found.

 

I can imagine hundreds I'd love to have.

Danzig's Hulk pin up is amazing:

 

 

I feel lucky just having this one Machine Man page.   I gotta take a nicer pic lol.

I love Kirby's pre-hero stuff

 

[batman_fan]

I also love Kirby's work on the Demon.

[KirbyJack]

The core of my collecting interests is Jack Kirby's Fantastic Four. The two pieces I have lucked into were on display over the weekend at Krypton Comics in Omaha. 

I loved that I could share them with folks who would not otherwise have the opportunity.

...unlike you lot that gets to see way better stuff whenever you want!

Does the art to FF 72 cover still exist?

Oh, MAN.  This is the stuff.  In fact, I just wrote an essay for DC about how much this issue meant to me.  It was the first contemporary Kirby I ever saw (meaning I'd seen his old stuff in reprints, but not what he was currently doing) and it FREAKED ME OUT.  WOW.  Thanks for showing this off.  5 stars.
