No Candlesticks

Slowly finding my body again. While bod & brain get reacquainted, how about a little quick Jack to get the day rolling.

First, a couple of one-pagers from Jack Kirby - a bit different than one might be used to seeing, from the pages of My Date Comics...



In an entirely different vein, we've got another caveman comic, though this one is a bit younger than most, being both a boy and from way back in Captain America Comics #1 from 1941. Tuk, Caveboy appeared in four out of the first five issues of Captain America before going extinct. All were written by Simon & Kirby, but only the first installment was drawn by Kirby -


Damn. I'd have liked to seen Kirby drawing Atlantis here.
Ah, well...

I expect we'll be seeing more Kirby later today, if the ol' peripatetic mind can be herded. Otherwise, we'll continue our King Kirby Weekend on the morrow. But for now, i've got this overwhelming urge to read the run of Jack Kirby's Black Panther comics...
