YOUNG THOR

SKOTTIE YOUNG, that is!

"To me, a job is a job. My job was to sell magazines - and that's what I did. I'm a professional, and I'm more interested in being professional than being an immortal artist of some kind." - Kirby

An example of what sold comic magazines in 1966.

MOST UNUSUAL THOR LINE EVER!?

In 1962 Marvel published 134 comics. 89 of them had Kirby covers and 78 also had interior Kirby art totaling 1,167 pages.

Kirby's 15th consecutive cover for JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY hit the shops in the Fall of 1962.

If you are a THOR fan in your Fifties JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #116 might have been your introduction to the dynamic artistry of Kirby.
