DR. DOOM marker sketch by Jack Kirby

Oh come on! ha!ha! Don't make me pull out FF #5 pages!            Just kidding! I wonder if its signed to Mike T? Congrats!

I feel like I've seen this in a JKC publication, and it was part of one of Jack's San Diego chalk talks. (But I might be hallucinating that.)

I did send copies of this and a Red Skull sketch to the JKC and they used the Doom sketch in the first Kirby checklist, if I'm remembering correctly.

That checklist sounds very familiar to me as a source. Hey, were you at the Skirball for the opening?

I was not able to make it to the Skirball opening but I went the other day and was happy to see several exceptional pages on loan from you. Great stuff.

Sweet vintage Kirby!  Even behind the mask, you can see a full personality in Doom.

based on this very desirable early example Kirby signature

( which he stopped sometime in 1971 )- this great sketch was

done at one of his early convention appearnces, or synagogue stops

Congrats !!

Thanks for the informationo on the signature. I've always been curious as to when Jack drew this. Now I have a rough idea.
