Description
Jack Kirby and Joe Simon - Fighting American #2 Complete 7-page Story "Assignment: Investigate the City of Ghouls" Original Art (Prize, 1954). Don't miss your chance to win one of the last shining moments at the twilight of the Golden Age of heroes. Jack Kirby and Joe Simon's satirical, star-spangled superhero, the Fighting American, burst on the scene in 1954, when anti-communist feelings were running strong. This outrageous feature soon turned into what Kirby called, "a kind of burlesque on the patriotic thing." In this spectacular seven-pager, the Fighting American and Speedboy battle the menace of General Dragonin and the ghosts of Mt. Shasta. Each page of the story has an approximate image area of 12" x 18", and the art is in Very Good condition. This lot showcases Simon & Kirby at their finest!More information about Jack Kirby.
