The King & The D-Men

Posted on September 19, 2010 by Jason

New Jersey based artist Blair Campbell created this portrait of Jack Kirby “kicking the snot out of Darkseid” to celebrate Jack’s recent 93rd birthday. A self confessed “novice illustrator” Blair decided earlier this year that it was time to get serious about his art and “hone his skills” with a daily drawing blog, Draw, Blair! Draw! Each day at the blog has a different theme and Blair frequently takes requests such as this homage to Kirby’s cover to The X-Men #1 featuring the students of Hogwarts.
