No one ever recaptured the Kirby FF look.
I totally agree. I really believe that these books represented as close to the height of the potential that existed in the Lee-Kirby partnership. I've always thought that the general coherence of the overall arcs were thanks to their banter, where the more grounded Lee and the more fanstical Kirby hit a sweet spot. I think the book probably had their hearts, as the flagship and initiator to the success of the new Marvel of the 1960s. Nothing is perfect, and I also think this page reveals as much of the disconnect in their method as the collaboration. The dialog on this page is nearly meaningless in the context of the action, and it really looks like Lee creating a script based on what he is reading in the panels (as opposed to the coherence you get from a script). I'm a little surprised that no one has tried to take some of these stories with the script stripped out and seeing how many different stories might be told with the exact same panels.

Epic page from a classic issue! Congratulations!
Thanks, West. Suffice it to say, I've had it a long while, before a person needed a second mortgage to get these pages.

Great Kirby FF page! Congrats!
Thanks, Andre. Perhaps it is obvious that it is one of the few that is hanging on a wall.

Action-packed page!
True dat! One of the things I liked was that there are few panels where the partially ignited Johnny Storm is caught in the midst of flaming on, and usually it was a head shot. I have not gone back through to take a head count, I actually think that this whole-body view may be unique (or if not, at least rare). Maybe I'll look one day.
