The Kirby Challenge

About JonBCooke

Jon B. Cooke is the former associate editor of The Jack Kirby Collector and editor/creator of the five-time Eisner Award-winning Comic Book Artist magazine (for "Best Comics-Related Periodical"). Jon is also the author, editor and/or designer of innumerable books on the subject of sequential art, and he is most recently the producer and writer of the full-length feature film documentary, Will Eisner: Portrait of a Sequential Artist (now available at www.montillapictures.com). He is a charter member Kirbyhead and credits The King for making him as odd as he is... much to the chagrin of his wife (of 23 years!) and three sons (of which the youngest, Daniel Jacob, is embarrassed by his old man's obsession... "Why not Daniel Kirby?" the kid asks). By day, Jon is a graphic designer in advertising.
