This is one of my absolute favourite of the romance covers, and I just wish there was a Kirby story to go along with it.

I like how in a composition like this Kirby manages to capture a key moment, with Earp just ready to move, frozen in a classic Kirby pose.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/v489\/kirbyblog\/dfdgbu517.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/v489\/kirbyblog\/ddgf953.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/v489\/kirbyblog\/ghui272.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photobucket.com\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/pic.photobucket.com\/bucket.gif\" border=\"0\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HI-SCHOOL ROMANCE #55, 1956.
