#JackedKirby - A Fan letter from a future Marvel Legend... 💥💥💥 Back in 1963 the Fantastic Four was chugging along at the head of the Marvel line of comics. The flagship title was being commandeered by Jack and Stan towards the top of the sales charts, but not everyone who was reading it was 100% satisfied with the finished product! Case in point a certain letter that was published in #Issue19 from October of 1963. 💥💥💥 The letter totally rips the Dream Team did their inconsistencies in storytelling and filler issues... and it takes particular exceptions with #Issue13 published in April of 1963. It came from the mind of a 16 year old Steve Gerber... the same Steve Gerber who would go onto create Howard the Duck for Marvel in 1973!!! 💥💥💥 The letter isn’t wrong... frankly he hits the nail on the head more then a few times. Even though my opinion of “The Run” (Jack & Stan’s 102 Issue run on the FF) is high there are some clunkers in there... and #Issue14 isn’t their best work! I love his ripping of the cover and all the blurbs... we get it, it’s all so important!!! (See pic 2) I am especially shocked at Gerber ripping the team up of Kirby and Ditko on this book... Ditko inked Kirby’s pencils. I think they are really good, and always like Ditko inking Kirby. See the third pic and make the decision for yourself!!! You also gotta love Stan’s snarky remarks in his response... typical Stanley Lieber laying it on thick!!!! 💥💥💥 The irony here is that when Gerber would eventually get into a legal battle with Marvel over the rights to the character Kirby would step up to help him. They collaborated on a few issues of Destroyer Duck to raise money for Gerber’s “Defense Fund” in battling Marvel!!! I wonder if the two ever discussed Gerber’s scathing letter from his teen years!!! 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #SteveDitko #StanAndJack #TheRun #FF #FantasticFour #SteveGerber #LettersPage #60sComics #ComicsOfThe60s #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #igcomiccommunity #igcomicfamily #igcomics #comicsofig #comicsofinstagram

#JackedKirby - Since it's Game of Thrones night... I have been holding this one for tonight for some time. Way back in #Issue20 of the Fantastic Four (which was published in November of 1963) a young George RR Martin wrote a letter to Stan & Jack to commend them on what he thought was a phenomenal issue of the FF back in #Issue17 (published in August of 1963). Or was he... Seems like young Maester Martin may have been taking some shots at the throne with his subtle jabs at things that occurred in #issue17. He is also not above calling out Jack & Stan's shortcomings in the beginning of the FF run! His writing is quite sharp for a guy just shy of his 13th bday when the letter was written. Possibly a sign of things to come in his future endeavors??? #jackkirby #kingkirby #JackAndStan #Kirby #GeorgeRRMartin #georgemartin #GameOfThrones #GOT #ThePrinceThatWasPromised #FF #FantasticFour #WinterIsHere #WinterIsComing #60sComics #comicsofthe60s #LettersPage #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #EvenTheKingGotShit (at The Stark House - Winterfell)
