#JackedKirby - RIP Joltin Joe Sinnott!!!! 💥💥💥 Today we got the sad new that legendary comic book industry professional and long term Jack Kirby collaborator Joe Sinnott passes away at the age of 93. Today is a sad day indeed... 💥💥💥 I say “comic industry professional” instead of INKER because Sinnott was much more then an inker. That may be what he is most well know for, but he has written/pencilled many stories and strips through the years as well as done other industry duties. So to reduce him to just being an inker would be a disservice. 💥💥💥 That being said, most people in the comics industry and fans consider him to be one of the finest inkers to ever ink a page. Stan Lee is quoted as saying “Pencillers would hurl all sorts of dire threats at me if I didn’t make certain that Joe... and ONLY JOE... inked their pages!” Joe and Jack worked together magically many times, but it was on the FF they became synonymous with each other. He inked FF #Issue5 (1st appearance of Dr Doom) and left the book before returning from some outside work to the book on #Issue44 in Nov of 1965. He would remain on the book through #Issue102 (Kirby’s last FF in Sept of 1970) and then continued on the book UNTIL 1981!!! That’s 16 straight years!!! 💥💥💥 What’s most amazing is despite working together so long, Kirby and Sinnott never ACTUALLY MET until the 70s at a comic convention. This was illustrated by @tom_scioli in a cool panel (pic 5). Everything was done by mail! 💥💥💥 Joe was a proud vet, a consummate professional and the pinnacle of inking in the industry. He will be greatly missed. @walter.simonson.5 said in a post “anyone who met Joe became his friend”. Just looking at him and hearing stories about him makes me believe that to be true! 💥💥💥 Rest well Joe... and condolences can be sent to the Sinnott Family at 27 Spaulding Lane in Saugerties, NY 12477 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #JoeSinnott #Sinnott #RIP #SinnottAndKirby #Inker #ComicInker #FF #FantasticFour #MarvelComics #StanLee #60sComics #70sComics #80sComics #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #GoneButNotFoegotten @joltin.joe.sinnott https://www.instagram.com/p/CB3mavQhPdw/?igshid=1ihocu6qyibny

#JackedKirby - Lady Sif vs Loki!!! 💥💥💥 I was looking for some inspiration for a post today so I put out some feelers to my buddies in my comic book group chat to ask for some characters to post. Our very own @tommylombardozzi suggested Lady Sif... so here ya go!!! 💥💥💥 Lady Sif, elite female warrior of Asgard, made her first appearance in Journey Into Mystery #Issue102 from May of 1964. She is the sister of Heimdall, and considered to be one of the most formidable warriors in all of the nine realms. She regularly appears right in the middle of the mix alongside the Warriors Three and Thor himself. 💥💥💥 This particular page comes from #Issue153 of The Mighty Thor, published in June of 1968. Here Sif is going toe to toe with the God of Mischief himself, Loki! I love the dynamic movements of Sif & Loki as they square off in battle... well done by The King! I’ve included both the original printing coloring (pic 1) and the reprint digital coloring (pic 2). Which do you prefer? 💥💥💥 Look forward to more posts coming soon... pandemic lockdown will lead to that!!! #KingKirby #Kirby #JackKirby #Thor #TheMightyThor #LadySif #Sif #Loki #Asgard #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #IGComics #ComicsOfIG #RecommendationPost https://www.instagram.com/p/B9-my6bhvuQ/?igshid=1fp6gnnvqrd2r

#JackedKirby - Magneto and The Mariner!!! I posted a very early 1940s Captain America splash page from Jack earlier, so I decided to travel to the opposite end of the spectrum with our next post. This one comes from #Issue102 of the Fantastic Four, which was published in September of 1970... and also happened to be Jack’s final issue of the run of 108 straight FF adventures (102 regular issues and 6 annuals). In this issue we see a super villain team of uncanny proportions... Magneto and The Sub Mariner on the same squad!!! Subby happened today save Magneto while he was floating unconscious is the water off the coast of the Savage Land (due to a later retcon) and now the master of magnetism was doing his best to convince the leader of Atlantis to invade the Surface!!! Great to see Jack drawing such classic Marvel creations as Eric Leshner and Mr. “Imperius Rex” Namor in his last hurrah at both FF and for all intensive purposes Marvel Comics (for the time being... lol). A beautiful splash page to ring in the end of the run!!! #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #FF #FantasticFour #Namor #SubMariner #Magneto #MarvelComics #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #70sComics #ComicsofThe70s #KirbySinnott #JoeSinnott #Villains #KirbyVillains
