#JackedKirby - Lens Shot.... I-DENTICAL!!! 📸📸📸 Jack was known for revisiting a page layout or character design long after first using it on a printed page. His work is full of re-do’s and mimicked panels/pages from early assignments. 📸📸📸 First up we have Adventure Comics #Issue94 which was published in October of 1944. Jack and Joe Simon had been doing a lot of work fro National (Later DC) Comics in the years after leaving Timely over the Captain America rights... one of their greatest contributions was Sandman, a reworking of an existing character that was regularly published in the anthology series! By the time this cover was published Jack & Joe were already off the book interiors, but Kirby is still credited with the cover design. On it we see a photographer using a major magnified zoom lens to bring Sandman and his kid sidekick Sandy into frame on the view finder. The main element that is focused on is the camera itself, with the photogs face obscured by the large camera in the background and the heroes appearing in the foreground but only through the scope of the lens. We immediately get the feeling that the photographer is taking these pictures unbeknownst to the Heroes.... 📸📸📸 Kirby would return to this specific layout with #Issue136 of Strange Tales, published in September of 1965 at Marvel Comics. Having made peace with Marvel, Jack returned in the later 50s to help usher in the age of Marvel Heroes. One of his most iconic creations alongside Stan Lee has to be the Nick Fury/SHIELD stories from Strange Tales, especially considering how popular the character is now thanks to the MCU movies! Here we see another photog observing the hero from afar through a zoom lens, with the same perspective of the hero appearing in the camera lens only. The photographer is sneakily positioned behind the back of the large camera, which is the standout item of this page... Beautiful layout concepts like these are the hallmarks of Kirby’s work throughout his career... and the obvious reason to reuse great perspective shot over again! 📸📸📸 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #AdventureComics #StrangeTales #NickFury #Shield #Sandman #Comic #Comics #ComicBook https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvb08OFBWeP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zgultkug20si

#JackedKirby - Laid Out!!! 💥💥💥 One thing that Jack was known to do in his early 60s Marvel comics is utilize a similar pose for a character numerous times in the same issue. On a previous post we documented how he re-drew a Thor cover for an interior panel (go look back a few weeks... it’s there!) and we’ve noticed another instance of it from Tales of Suspense #Issue94 (published in October of 1967). 💥💥💥 In the opening splash page we see Cap being held at gunpoint by an AIM agent laid flat on his back... there is nothing really significant about this pose other then the vulnerable state Cap seems to be in. Not used to seeing him so helpless like this.... 💥💥💥 But later in the issue we find Cap in yet another “laid out” pose... he is helpless on the floor as he is being sucked through the floor. It is not exactly the same pose, but I find it very unlikely Kirby didn’t purposely repeat this “flat on the back” pose since he often had done that in the past... either way, a cool double use of “helpless” Cap in one of the final issues before the character was relaunched in his own monthly title!!! 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #Kirby #KingKirby #Cap #CaptainAmerica #TalesOfSuspense #AnthologyComics #RepeatPoses #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #Helpless #60sComics #ComicsOfThe60s #IGComics #IGComicCommunity #comicsofIG #ComicsOfInstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BuPEMd2hpoE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xi5vwm0d06md
