Upcoming Kirby – A Duck and a Civil War

by

[Note, DESTROYER DUCK book cancelled, further news pending]

Here are a pair of Kirby reprints that will be listed in the May issue of Diamond Previews for publication this summer. I hadn’t heard anything about them before. The About Comics website just mentions DESTROYER DUCK as an upcoming book. The current publisher of CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED, Jack Lake Productions, has it listed on their upcoming books list. It’s 26 pages of Kirby/Ayers if it’s a full reprint of this book. More info if I find out more. Also, Verotik has their old 1998 reprint of the Simon&Kirby BLUE BOLT re-listed.
