It's really just incredible how good Jack Kirby was. Just with pencils and pens and bristol board (and six colors printed onto cheap newsprint), he was able to create a vastness of space and a majesty of imaginary technology that overwhelms the imagination.

Look how hard ILM has to work (and how many millions of dollars have to be spent) to get the same ideas across on a movie screen that Kirby could create with a $1.99 bottle of ink.

He must be wearing his "Summer Outfit" lol.

Summer from the waist down? I don't buy it. Space can be pretty chilly.

And THAT, Jordan is why they call him The King.

Yeah, I never liked the 'bare legs' look. My only dislike of the 'Big G'....

Check out the NASSA (Black Astronaut Program) video on youtube.., you'll find out just how 'MF cold space is'. A fav of mine.

Long Sleeves with Shorts always looks wrong. If you're going to expose skin, show it in the hands or biceps, seeing those sections of skin signals "Strong".

You know way too much about what looks good on a world eater, Erik.

It takes one to know one Kal. I just ate three mini meatball planets for dinner!
