Not Sold Description
Jack Kirby Dr. Droom Pin-Up Illustration Original Art (c. 1970). The dynamic central figure of this thriller harkens back to an early Jack Kirby creation, the pre-hero Marvel character Doctor Droom, who was featured in the first few issues of Amazing Adventures. The Humpty Dumpty-esque feller riding a hoverpad behind him is a dead ringer for Egg-Head from Captain Victory, while the demonic minions lining the borders are hallmark Kirby creations. This appears to have been a specialty commission that Kirby completed at the specific request of a fan. It's quite a stunner, with its large size (18" x 22.5") and bold inks. A spectacular piece for any Kirby collector, the artwork is in Excellent condition, with only minor blunting at the corners.More information about Jack Kirby.
