A Grimm Predicament

The Ultimate Nullifier may strike fear into the heart of Galactus, Ben, but I doubt you’ll ever light that stogie with it. A grimm predicament for The Thing courtesy of Robb Waters.

Happy Birthday, Jack!

As inker/letterer for the majority of Jack’s work throughout the 70’s and 80’s, Mike Royer, is well known to fans of the site. My thanks to Mike for his permission to use this portrait and to Rob Steibel for submitting the commisioned artwork.

KIRBY-VISION would like to send out a huge thank you to all the artists who took the time to contribute to the gallery. Despite looming deadlines and moving houses (and other such excuses) you really pulled out all the stops to pay tribute to Jack’s inspiration.
