Why Kirby Is King

Jump to the Kirby tribute

Today would have been Jack Kirby's ninety-second birthday. To honor the day, my brother and I asked comic book creators from the Mid-Ohio-Con family and beyond to answer the question "Why is Kirby king?" Our second annual Kirby tribute appears today at midohiocon.com.

Jack Kirby is iconic, for sure, and the first comic book artist I knew by name.

Salute, Kirby!

For a real treat, check out Matt Fraction's Twitter stream today:

"In honor of jack kirby's 92nd birthday I am creating 719 universes today."

It goes from there. Sheer genius!
