KIRBY BIRTHDAY

Jack Kirby would have been 97 had he not died in 1994. He created a bunch of stuff. If you go to the movies, you may recognize some of them:

"Are you sure you don't mean Stan Lee?"

Nope. Jack goddamn Kirby. "Are these all of Jack Kirby's creations?" Not even close. Just the ones they've gotten around to.

From the Line it is Drawn#199: "In honor of Batman’s 75th anniversary this month, team Batman up with a hero he’s never had a team-up with before or have Batman face a villain he’s never fought before! Or heck, have him team up with a hero he’s never teamed up with AGAINST a villain he’s never fought before! Go nuts!" JohnnyUnusual , SpastickMunkey, and therealAstrozac suggested: "Batman and Moon Knight".

From the Line it is Drawn #198: “Based on an old suggestion by John Trumbull, the topic is character design What If? Like “What if Jack Kirby had designed Batman?” or “What if Spider-Man had been designed in the 1930s?” or “What if Archie had been designed during the 1990s?” Let your imagination go wild!” FutuGen suggested: “What if Patrick Nagel designed Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn?”

I was contacted by Paolo Gilli & Fabio Suanno about doing a poster for their very awesome, very ambitious project, a visual companion to Beastie Boys landmark 1989 album Paul's Boutique. When they showed me clips of the completed film, how could I say no? Dropping July 25th!
