A Jack Kirby Art Book By Stephen Vincent Kempton Your enjoyment of this book will depend on your love of Jack Kirby and your expectations of this book.What you won't get is any complete Kirby Comic stories, any never seen or never published art. Or even any real information on the life of man besides superficial information that most of us are already aware of.What you do get is a beautiful art book crammed with covers, splash pages and pin-ups done by Jack "The King " Kirby done for Marvel Comics during his three stays at Marvel.The book is done on High Quality glossy paper stock . It is a beautiful Hard Cover done in the Landscape ( wider then tall ) 240 pages that all fit in a classy Heavy Duty slip case.In preparation for this review I did something that I expect few will do with this type of book. I read it cover to cover. The writing is by John Rhett Thomas who really does little except introduce each chapter and provide complete credits for every cover and splash page . Sometimes he also provides a sentence or two talking about the art or the importance of a story.The book is set up chronologically into six chapters. Chapter One is Jack Kirby and Joe Simon: Timely's Golden Age. This focuses on Captain America and The Vision, but does include many of the other great covers he did during this era.Chapter Two Monsters And Cowboys: Jack Kirby And The Atlas Era focuses on the time he became Stan Lee's main muse after the death of Joe Manleey in 1959. He did a few stories starting in 1956, but starting in 1959 through his departure in 1970 his production was phenomenal.This is the subject on my favorite chapter November 1961: The Month That Changed Marvel. This of course is the month that Jack illustrated the 25 page Fantastic Four #1 and it's cover. But here the focus is on that book and the twelve other stories and nine other covers he also did that month. Monsters, Superheroes, Westerns and Romances, all total 119 pages for that month alone.The next chapter is massive since it covers The Marvel Age: King Kirby. This is his superhero work from 1961 to 1970. Since it runs 150 pages each character gets his own sub-chapter. The Fantastic Four, Ant-Man /Giant-Man and The wasp, The Hulk, Spider-Man, Iron-Man, Thor, The Avengers, Captain America, X-Men, Sgt. Fury, Nick Fury, Sub-Mariner, Silver Surfer, Ka-Zar, Inhumans and even Not Brand Echh.Chapter Six is The Return Of The King and deals with the three years when Jack returned after his DC Comics stay. Again we get sub-chapters with Captain America, The Eternals, Black Panther, Machine Man and Devil Dinosaur. I assume no copyright agreement could be reached so we are sadly missing any art for 2001.The final chapter is a very short reminiscence by Neal Kirby, his son. While this is entertaining it is very brief (four pages with illustrations) and might have just been included as an afterward rather then an entire chapter.We also get an Introduction by Joe Quesada. Plus sprinkled in through the volume are small sidebar stories from a multitude of Comic Creators. These include John Cassaday, Mark Bagley, Alan Weiss, Ryan Stegman, Michael Allred, Ramon K. Perez, Steve Rude, Dan Jurgens, Karl Kessel, Keith Giffen, Sal Buscema, Terry Austin, Nick Bradshaw, Klaus Janson, Rick Remember, Tom Scoli, Rich Buckler and Andy Lanning. These are very brief and talk about the time they met Kirby or what Kirby meant to them. The name quite obviously missing from the list above is one Stan Lee.If you want deep insight into the man this is not your book. But if you just want to look at a collection of beautiful art work then this comes Highly Recommended.
