“Paroxysm”? Boy, comics really do build up your vocabulary.

from Thor #137 [1967]

All things considered, fairly mild treatment from Darkseid to his underlings. This one knows to get gone while he can.

Great little baseball scene from some later Kirby work. I think someone needs to be tested for steroids.

from Machine Man #8 [1978]

Doom’s definitely selling himself short. I mean, he should at least be Vice President.

Too easy? Yeah, I thought so…

Nothing like a panel full of those crackling dots of cosmic energy.

The Eternals #15 [1977]

They managed to get this work by Kirby inked and published less than 40 years after he drew it. No wonder the company isn’t called “Timely” anymore. Joe Sinnott still has it, though.

from Fastastic Four: The Lost Adventure [2008]

I can’t help but thinking that, being master of the whole dream realm, Sandman should have a more dignified way of leaving his Dream Dome.

from The Sandman #4 [1975]

“Master Freak”, that’s a great description of the inimitable Arnim Zola, the Bio-Fanatic. Also an excellent Rick James song…

from Captain America #210 [1977]

I always thought Oberon was somewhat underused at times in the comics, so it’s always good when he got a chance to get in on the action and show what he was capable of.

from Mister Miracle #11 [1972]

Little pep talk from his brother in the sky never hurts. I’m not always crazy about D. Bruce Berry’s inks, but that’s some great stuff here.

from OMAC #6 [1975]
