trmoore54 Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Here 2 of the very best covers done by King Kirby - ever!!! These colors are just off the scale... I picked these recently from a couple of boardies, thanks guys! Bill Never seen those b4, very pretty. WOW...I tend to forget books such as these by Kirby...unfreakinbelievable! Anyone who doesn't accept JK as a true Artist is clueless...for a book in '55 take a look at the boots on the cowboy to the left...total sci-fi groove, crossover genre-wise if you will...very interesting...with the Indian motif backdrop... a lot goin' on in this cover...a virtual visual smorgasborg...a kaliedescopic glimpse into the mind that was Kirby in 55...AMAZING!

VintageComics Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Kirby, though sometimes anatomically incorrect, is the master of comic book layout. Never again will someone be able to see a scene like the king. Long live the king! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMNT Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I finally manage to upgrade my TMNT 1st print at what I felt was a steal of a price...beautiful WHITE pages, deep blacks, and signed by both Eastman & Laird...I am VERY happy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice 6.0 Thanks, I've seen higher graded copies that look worse. It has a slight possiblility of being a White Mountain. I doubt it, but the seller said it may be one. So it will be fun to try and figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it will be fun to try and figure it out. Looks like it could be a WM. I would talk to cgcworld if you really want to find out. Of course he will probably want to buy it off you if it turns out to be a White Mountain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
