#JackedKirby - The Evil Ones!!! 💀💀💀 I am a big fan of the Kamandi run Jack completed at DC. Not only is it his longest stint for the company, but it is loaded with amazing visuals and great storytelling all from The King by himself! 💀💀💀 I was looking through #Issue24 of the series (December of 1974) and found this awesome interior splash page to post. I love when Kirby broke his series/comics into “chapters”. Not only did it compartmentalize the elements of the story, but if allowed Kirby more opportunities to complete SPLASH PAGES! 💀💀💀 This issue deals with a death cult, an evil Curse, a house of dangerous outcomes and a host of awesome looking characters! On this page Jack ties all of these elements together and presents them in beautiful harmony!!! I included the original inks (pic 1) and the recolored image from the recent omnibus release (pic 2) for various ways to digest the work. I prefer the older newsprint coloring, but the color image here shows just how much is really going on in this page!!! 💀💀💀 This post goes out to @jeffgarlin who dropped in on our page to share his love for Kirby... can’t wait to get you on the podcast to discuss all things Kirby sir!!!! 💀💀💀 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #EvilOnes #Kamandi #KirbySplashPages #SplashPages #Comic #comics #comicbook #comicbooks #70sComics #ComicsofThe70s #DC #KirbyDC #IGComics #ComicsOfIG https://www.instagram.com/p/B90PXf4hzZg/?igshid=5phzlh9n64ku

Watching

The season 2 premiere of A.P. Bio is now on Hulu! Jack does a bunch of blue collar jobs for his new philosophy book idea and enlists his students to help with research. So start to shut up and watch it everybody.

There's also a new episode of Superstore on Hulu where Amy goes to a class to become a manager and Mateo launches an activist campaign against Duterte (the irl villain dictator of the Philippines).

Lin-Manuel Miranda guest stars in the latest episode of Brooklyn 99! He guest stars in a lot of stuff, but I get really excited every time. It's also just a great episode of B99.

And there's a new episode of Broad City where Ilana has to go to the vet for a disgusting eye thing. It's seriously so gross.

#JackedKirby - Welcome Manhunter... 💥💥💥 This week on the Jacked Kirby podcast we dove into some of Jack’s more obscure works over at DC in the 70s.... Justice Inc, Kobra and his Manhunter 1 shot. Some really great stuff from the King in these limited runs by him, so I decided to re-read them again now and refresh my memory. Boy am I glad I did... 💥💥💥 Here is the first double splash page of 1st Issue Special #Issue5 (published in August of 1975) by the King, Inked by D Bruce Berry! In this splash we see an aging Paul Kirk, Kirby’s original Manhunter from his run on Adventure Comics in the 1940s. Kirk is another mission, and what we find out later is that by now he is older and ready to retire. He goes to the council of Manhunters who then turn the mantle over to another person... Mark Shaw, who would hold the title of Manhunter and be revived in the future pages of Detective Comics and his own series by Kirby aficionado Walt Simonson In later series... 💥💥💥 In this splash we see Kirby’s golden age Manhunter, Kirk, entering a cave of heads... yup, I just typed that. These heads are disconnected from their bodies... and they are also speaking and taunting the Manhunter freely (as one can only expect in a Kirby story!). On the far right of the double page spread we see the purposes ringleader of this “head gang”, a pink alien like creature in some sort of a control booth (check out the closeup in Pic 3 of this post). 💥💥💥 Named Chopper, this mass murder is actually a human man wearing a ridiculously oversized head/helmet/mask to create a fearsome illusion of this creature. Those of you familiar with Kirby’s work on the Fantastic Four May recognize Chopper’s resemblance to a classic Kirby alien, Infant Terrible (appeared in FF #Issue24)... something that Kirby would do from time to time because he probably liked the design of a character and couldn’t use them at another company! The color is switched from green on Infant Terrible to pink on Chopper, and some adjustments were made to his ears... but the eyes and head-shape remind of the FF villain so much!!! 💥💥💥 Some great art here folks... check out the podcast episode (episode 40) and read these issues https://www.instagram.com/p/Brp4tejBw3s/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=emh34mm5ywxm

Can't Wait to Watch

The second season of Fleabag premiered last week on BBC Three and it's being released on Amazon on May 17. I'm experiencing intense FOMO because I have to wait for it come to Amazon. I'm SO ready for season two of Fleabag and have already rewatched the first season (again) in preparation.

Part 2 of The OA will return to Netflix on March 22 and the trailer looks insane. I'm so excited for the second season. This is such a weird sci-fi/fantasy show and it looks like it's going in an even crazier direction than the first season.

Queer Eye is coming back this week! The Fab Five will return on March 15 for season 3 to revamp the wardrobes and lifestyles of a whole new set of people.

How to Make Love to a Black Woman (Who May Be Working Through Some Sh*t) is an upcoming anthology series created by Casallina "Cathy" Kisakye (The Chi) and Lena Waithe (The Chi, Master of None) for Showtime. The project will consist of half-hour episodes with multiple storylines per episode. It sounds like it's going to be very original, vulnerable, and comical so I'm really looking forward to it.

Re-Watching

If you're in the mood for a crime show with an amazing cast, then watch Broadchurch on Netflix. Broadchurch is a great British crime show starring Olivia Colman (The Favorite) and David Tennant. They play detectives investigating the death of an 11-year-old boy in a small Dorset community.

#JackedKirby - The 2 Dimensional Man!!!! 💥💥💥 Jack is very well known for his early Marvel Horror/Sci-Fi anthology book work, but many don’t know that he cut his teeth on these kinds of stories at National Comics (DC) on the Tales of the Unexpected anthology series!!! 💥💥💥 Take this excellent story, The Two Dimensional Man from Tales of the Unexpected #Issue24 published in April of 1958. The writers on these series are mostly unknown, but Jack’s art is documented and extremely recognizable.... 💥💥💥 In the story we see a scientist develop a compound that can be applied to a 3 Dimensional living beings or animals and render them 2 Dimensional... basically turning them into flat pieces of paper!!! 💥💥💥 They plan on using it to make transporting livestock easier and more efficient (Pic 2), turning the massive animals into sheets of paper thin cows that can be stacked up in a neat pile!!! Of course hijinks ensues when the powder is applied to humans, rendering the flat as a board as well!!! 💥💥💥 Gotta love Jack’s creativity... it’s awesome how he gets the images across in this short story. It has a very Twilight Zone feel to it and is quite reminiscent of the many stories Jack would illustrate for Timely/Marvel anthologies in the future!!! 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #TwoDimensionalMan #TalesOfTheUnexpected #DCComics #NationalComics #HorrorAnthologyComics #Comic #ComicBook #ComicBooks #Comics #50sComics #ComicsOfThe50s #IGComics #ComicsOfIG #IGComicBooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BwM-D2YB7bI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=klia06k8my8d
