He said it’s around 70% by Jack. It really just confirms the last article written on this piece on the Kirby Museum website. And BTW that write up done by HA was done at the request of the consignor at that time. Rb Edited August 29, 2019 by RICKYBOBBY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Silver Surfer pencils here were done way before that time and actually used to hang in Jack Kirbys home. So not to be confused with the different times and pieces.
