I'm actually not sure which others are by Jack Kirby himself since so many others have aped his style when it comes to Cap.

Here's your individual report card

 

1. Gene Colan thumbsup2.gif

2. Rich Buckler frown.gif

3. Steranko thumbsup2.gif

4. Bryan Hitch frown.gif 2nd time guesses as Hitch though

10. Gil Kane frown.gif It's Tuska

16. Barry Smith frown.gif

17. Frank Springer - It's the other Frank - Robbins

19. John Romita thumbsup2.gif

24. Neal Adams thumbsup2.gif

27. John Buscena thumbsup2.gif

29. Sal Buscema frown.gif

30. Joe Simon (maybe w/Kirby) 893applaud-thumb.gif

I agree, some times it's hard to parse them out in between Steranko, Smith, Simonson, Romita, Steve Rude, ... There is yet another Kirby in there that no one has pointed out correctly though. It's one a lot of people will go - That's Kirby confused.gif

 

If anyone wants to carry the torch and replicate the game with Batman (which should be easier than with Superman), please feel free to do so. My collection is Bats and Supes poor.

And what a shot - Bull's-eye on all 893whatthe.gif

 

2: Al Milgrom from Avengers # 230

4: Alan Davis from Avengers # 478 (or v.3 # 63)

6: Carlos Pacheco from Avengers Forever # 3 (of 12)

12: Jack Kirby!!!! Wow! - I know - Go check out Tales of Suspense # 72 on p. 8 for that Cap Am. Who is the inker on this again?

16: George Perez from Avengers v. 3 # 25 - Compare this to early Perez (Jan. 1976) on Cap Am # 5 above that people thought it might be Smith. There's no confusing them today

20: Rich Buckler from Avengers # 106 - one of my favorite Cap posted in the game

28. Al Jaffee acclaim.gif from the cover of Alter Ego # 35

29: Alex Schomburg from the cover of Invaders King-Size Annual # 1

 

I was actually very impressed with the Cap Am Schomburg drew on the Captain America # 33 once I cut it out of the usual Schomburg "clutter" - a very nice figure.

 

Thanks again Scrooge... great game! I thouroghly enjoyed it.

 

Glad you enjoyed it thumbsup2.gif
