I Have Heard The Word -- And It Is Kirby!


It's Jack Kirby's birthday. Lots of websites are making note of it, and lots of folks are singing the much deserved praises of "The King". I'll only add my small note to the chorus by saying that when Jack Kirby launched the Fourth World at DC, this former-youngster had his world utterly transformed by the majesty and the splendor and the drama. Epics would come and go over the next several decades, but Kirby's Fourth World remains the first and most potent.

Thanks Jack.
