COMIC BOOK CREATOR #50
CBC proudly presents our bonus-size 100-page 50th issue ($12.95) explaining “Why We Love Kirby,” talking with top pros and historians on the impact Jack “King” Kirby has made in all of our lives as a storyteller, artist, and human being. Coinciding with The Jack Kirby Collector #100 this month, CBC editor Jon B. Cooke and TJKC editor John Morrow sit down for a discussion about the meaning of Kirby and legacy of TwoMorrows Publishing, with a glimpse of “TwoMorrow” via an excerpt of the amazing Kirby Koncordance these two chums are planning to compile in their twilight years! Also: Part one of our talk with artist extraordinaire Brendan McCarthy on early work with Brett Ewins and Peter Milligan, and breaking into 2000 AD! Additionally, we honor the wonderful ’80s series ’Mazing Man, talking with creators Stephen DeStefano and Bob Rozakis about their charming creation. Also included is Shaun Clancy’s revealing conversation with Bob Sproul about his father’s Major Magazines, publisher of Cracked, Web of Horror, and Monsters Attack; and part two of Marvel Bullpen cut-up Stu Schwartzberg’s interview. And, of course, Fred Hembeck!

JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR #101
Peace will be with you in this Peacetime issue of the Jack Kirby Collector (the flipside to #99’s Wartime theme)! We examine all the times the Forever People ran from a fight (and what Jack was trying to convey with that), take a look at scripts for Simon & Kirby’s romance comics, detail the collages Jack produced during his downtime, present his more sedate animation ideas, examine How ChatGPT’s interpretation of who created the Marvel Universe has changed in the last several years, and document the most loving relationships between his characters. Also, Sergio Aragonés interviews Mark Evanier about his past with Jack, we feature a never-reprinted Simon & Kirby story, plus the heartfelt 2026 Wondercon Kirby panel (a favorite of TJKC editor John Morrow), a luscious pencil art gallery, and more!

JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR #102
Kirby’s Counter Culture! We look at how the hippie movement affected Jack’s work, from Thor to the Fourth World! There’s a love-in examining Jack’s Speak-Out Series titles (with participants Tom Kraft, Rand Hoppe, Mark Evanier, and John Morrow), Kirby’s sorta-collaboration with Peter Max, and how surfer culture and Vietnam played into such groovy Kirby concoctions as Captain America, Beardsley Bullfeather, Superworld of Everything, Uncle Carmine’s Fat City Comix, and Galaxy Green! Included are numerous rare, short-take Kirby interviews, a never-reprinted Simon & Kirby story, a pencil art gallery, and more, behind a far-out psychedelic Kirby cover!

JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR #103
Mythic Kirby! How myths and legends permeated Jack’s work, where ancient civilizations—from Mayan and Incan to Greek and Roman—appeared in Kirby’s oeuvre, mythmakers Steven Spielberg and Jack Kirby presciently discuss super-heroes in 1982, a thought-provoking essay by Jack himself, the Kirby Mythology panel from Comic-Con International (with Rand Hoppe, Ray Wyman, Tracy Kirby, Bruce Simon, and John Morrow), a UK student’s enlightening thesis on Kirby, Mark Evanier’s 2027 Kirby Tribute Panel from San Diego, plus a never-reprinted Simon & Kirby story, a pencil art gallery, and more, behind a cover by Kirby and Dave Stevens!
