Panels – Oberon kicking butt

Posted on April 24, 2008 by Bob

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.

Panels – No ordinary man can do it

Posted on April 22, 2008 by Bob

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.

-Link- Kirby and McCartney

Posted on April 21, 2008 by Bob

I’m sure most readers have read the story of the Kirbys meeting Paul and Linda McCartney due to the Wings song “Magneto and Titanium Man”, and seen the McCartney/Magneto drawing that Kirby gave them, either in THE JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR or KIRBY: KING OF COMICS. The Kirby Museum Gallery has some interesting multi-media additions to the story, several colour photos of the backstage meeting, a fan-made audio recording of Paul McCartney introducing the song that night, and a video recording of the song as performed that night.

Panels – Celebrating with the FF

Posted on April 20, 2008 by Bob

The immediate aftermath of Reed and Sue announcing that they’re going to have a baby. One of my favourite scenes in the whole FF run.
