Scott, just idling through images and I land on this gem in your superb collection. The work on this page seems to reference the amazing pace of ideas and visual energy Jack was outpouring at break neck speed at this time..the best of the best!

Mark, what you have here is sublime. I think this is my favourite Kirby page ever. You can literally feel and hear the rain as it bounces down the tragic and heroic figure of Ben Grimm aka The Thing, onto the hard cement/bitumen pavement. Just wonderful!

It is fascinating to see an artist at the beginning of his career, clearly channeling Kirby and Steranko, who were the absolute benchmarks of that period. Thanks for sharing these gems.

Cheers Chris; it was one of the things that excited me about this page, the fact that graphically it was so complete with all members clearly involved as well as the FF's first villain to boot. Joe Sinnot's inking makes the both the visual quality and the storytelling of Kirby shine..very much a complete package within the one page.

Suat Tong, a superb addition to your gallery. Ditko work, like this great page, is at the top of the pile. This page demonstrates both artistic grace and the kind of humour that cemented these early issues as iconic.

Fascinating story Aaron. I could see how difficult a 'line ball' decision you had to make. Whatever, the Kirby power pulsates. Wish we had a restorer here in Oz of the quality of craftsmanship Gordon demonstrates here.

I think you raise some important issues about our 'hobby' and were collecting might be heading, particularly at a financial level and all the complexities that compound this; but with this wonderful page you dont need to 2nd guess your purchase. Don Heck has been highly undervalued (artistically and financially by today's standards) and with beautiful inks courtesy of Wally Wood, the character depiction, action and layout are quite superb here...worth everything and more that you shelled out for it. This page captures the joy of this book and the mid 60's Marvel Silver Age perfectly.Congratulations on an excellent purchase of a classic page.

Great page Kevin. I agree with Timothy's comment that in the main, Steve Ditko's work on Dr Strange was far more elaborate, dynamic and intricate than his Spiderman work (with the exception of a number of stunning issues). With Dr Strange he allows his wonderful design sense to permeate every aspect of the page as seen in your lovely page.

Ron, this is an absolutely extraordinary page. Given it was near the end of Jack's run at Marvel, with his interest waning and frustrations increasing with the 'Marvel Machines' treatment of their star artist, that he should create such wonderful pencils in a powerful impacting composition, totally enhanced by Everett's technically strong inks is just amazing.

This is five panels of terrific. I love Mr. Fantastic problem-solving, the difficulties of a Thing robot, the inking that brings us closer to three dimensions than Stone managed, and really the whole transitional feeling of this from those early days to the more established FF books.

Cheers Glen, you have eloquently summed up how pivotal and visually exciting this page is and how it lays the all the necessary visual and verbal planks for the 'magic' that will soon follow.

Congratulations Ron, you have acquired a wonderful page. As you state, it is so 'meaty' in terms of storytelling devices such as angles of view, main characters and the human touch of linking in the everyday 'man in the street,......this is part of what was lost with subsequent illustrators of this title, no matter how slick or talented they were. Ditko was the 'master' and you have a 'masterpiece'!

Hey Glen, what a beautiful & heartfelt gift. It reminds me of a restaurant that used to exist in Paddington, an eastern Sydney suburb; nothing special in the dining area, but when you went to the bathroom WOW..Wall to Wall Kirby...comic pages covering everything except the plumbing! Dont think it still exists. Yours is a wonderful testament to what is great.

Great cover Andrew. I love the weighted compositional imbalance that Adams uses so well in this fabulous cover design, something of a trade mark.
