Jack Kirby and Daredevil

[shadroch]

Other than the FF 73 and the cover of DD 43,did Kirby draw hornhead in any other books?

FF 39 and 40.

FF 100 too, right?

everybody was in that.

Didn't Wood do Daredevil in those issues?

Yes apparently they had Wood either redraw or independently draw Daredevil in those issues. I don't remember whether it was because Stan didn't think Jack drew him right, or whether they wanted him to just look the same as he did in the comics that Wood was drawing at the time.

 

Edit by Rhino_Comics: Wood inked DD. Kirby still did the pencils.

and Curt Swan did the faces!!

How about FF Annual 3? I don't have a raw copy.He's on the cover,is he inside as well?

Yes he sure is as he!

Funny you should ask that. Sub-mariner and the Hulk are on the cover but not inside. Both Sgt. Fury and Nick Fury are also on the cover, but only Nick Fury is inside (er ...well, I guess technically they are the same and are both inside )

That story is also reprinted in FF Annual 10.

This time only Sub-mariner is the guilty party not featured inside the story.

But boy he sure kept showing up for the cover shoots.

The Hulk must have been busy.

I always thought Subby attacked NYC with his giant beasts during the wedding.At least thats the way I thought I remembered the mid60s animated version from the MMMS cartoon series.

Not sure about the animated series, but I pulled King Size Annual 10 and on page 17, ATTUMA rises from the water with an army but not Sub-Mariner. And to keep this on topic, it's none other than Daredevil himself who leaps off a runaway truck before it collides with Attuma (not before Daredevil gives a lengthy play-by-play of what is about to happen).

Well of COURSE he gives a lengthy play-by-play... he's a freakin' LAWYER!!!

Paging through Essential Thor V2 this morning, I found a Daredevil panel in JIM 116.

 

The interesting thing is that DD's thought balloon has him thinking about finding Submariner, and DD is in his new costume. The footnote says to look at Daredevil #7 for details.

 

So, did DD go looking for Submariner after Daredevil 7 concluded (and was this mentioned in #8)? Or was this prior to Daredevil 7 (in which case this would be the first appearance of the new costume)?

 

Thanks,

Essential Daredevil tells me that the DD/Subby battle concludes with them both being electrocuted, but Namor recovering first (due to the godliness, mainly) and walking off...

 

Namor dialogue: "Out of respect to the courage of Daredevil, I shall NOT injure any humans!" And he dives back into the sea. What a nice fella. So to answer your question, the JIM 116 appearance is set after DD#7. And no reference to Subby in #8 that I can find.

[Fan4Fan]

Thanks... one less mystery to ponder!

My understanding is that Kirby did sketch Pencils for Daredevil 12 & 13 (Kazar issues) and then Romita finalized them. Almost a lesson for Romita to learn from. I have the Buyer's Guide that mentions the specifics if you want to look for it.

Both 12 & 13 state "Layouts by Jack Kirby". I re-read the article and Romita said that Kirby drew the layouts and he finished them up.
