JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR 92

In the News! From the Boys' Brotherhood Republic newsletter of his childhood, to rare newspaper interviews with Jack and articles about his career, we're clipping anything and everything about Kirby that has to do with newsprint! There's a never-published 1973 San Diego Con panel with Jack discussing DC's coloring with Neal Adams, newly discovered strips that Jack ghosted for other syndicated artists (including Frank Giacoia on Johnny Reb & Billy Yank), unused newspaper strip concepts, collages, a never-reprinted Simon & Kirby Headline Comics tale, a Jimmy Olsen and the Newsboy Legion pencil art gallery, our regular columnists, Mark Evanier's 2024 Kirby Tribute Panel from Comic-Con International, and more! With an unused Jimmy Olsen cover inked by syndicated cartoonist David Reddick.
