A huge thank you to all the artists who took the time to contribute to today’s Birthday celebration, making it our biggest portrait gallery ever. And of course a huge thank you goes out to Jack Kirby for his continuing inspiration. Long live The King!

 

 

Calgary Expo Cosplay

Our second post this week courtesy of Steve Coates.

All the photos are from the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo. The Galactus Costumer photograph is from the 2012, but he was by the Jack Kirby Museum booth again this year. All the other photos were taken from the 2013 booth and are of attendees walking by. Except for the Captain America Costumer, he was invited into the booth, so the display posters could be used as a background.

Galatus Saves Christmas

GALACTUS SAVES CHRISTMAS

It’s that time of year again and Kirby-Vision would like to wish each and everyone of our readers the very best for the holiday season. To celebrate here’s a fantastic piece from regular contributor Marc Basile who comments, “When I think of Christmas, I remember how much fun it was when I was a child. It just had a little extra sparkle back then! Here is a book I would’ve loved to have, if it were real.”
