Look At That Classic Captain America Kirby Art

"Jack Kirby is called 'The King of Comics' for a reason, during his career that spanned six decades he gave us many of most iconic characters the medium would ever see. From his introduction of Captain America at the height of World War II it was clear he wasn't your ordinary comics artist. But it was his creative explosion at Marvel Comics in the 1960's that cemented his legacy, over a short period of time Kirby would give us The Fantastic Four, Iron Man, The Hulk, The X-Men, Thor, Ant-Man and Nick Fury just to name a few. Kirby would then go to DC and create his Fourth World, introducing Darkseid, Mister Miracle, The New Gods and a host of cosmic supporting players. Long live The King. White pgs, Kirby cvr/art; origin retold."

Adding key books at these lower prices is great. While not the grade most investors are looking for, those just looking to add nice, displayable copies to our shelves are ok with that. Again, this auction is part of ComicConnects Event Auction #43, with bidding on this Captain America book wrapping up on Tuesday, August 25th. You can see all the details here, and while over there check out everything else up for auction as well.
