DescriptionThis is, to me, one of the best Kirby pages ever. Thor’s hammer hitting the Absorbing Man’s ball and chain in their first battle. The half page splash is cover worthy. I am so pleased to share this piece.Social/Sharing |

Epic battle page, I can hear the hammer 's clash! Pure Kirby.

An incredible page for sure! I'm biased though, as I've loved every page from this story ever since I bought and read it in my copy of Bring on the Bad Guys. Great stuff!

This story was actually inked by Frank Giacoia(as Frankie Ray). Vince Colletta didn't graduate to the main feature until JIM #116. This is a spectacular pg. and I feel it really pops thanks to the heavier Giacoia finishes.

Classic Kirby action page and a great ink job by Coletta (which is something I rarely say!). Mighty page--congrats!

I'm might have to disagree that this is one of the best. This might well be the best!!!!
Congrats.

Great page - I like 3 panel pages as you get some splash and some storytelling. The whiteout effect in panel 2 is excellent and I imagine that was FG's work!

I agree, hard to top for Kirby or Thor page IMO. Love the large battle images and each panel is clearly a splash in and of its own! Pure magic by the King - BIG congrats to you!

What a Phenomonal Kirby Battle Page. Worthy of the halls of Asgard.. One of the best pages of their epic two issue battle. Super Classic Kirby gold right here to have one of Thor's major Villians and in fact Absorbing man to me was one of the more original and favored Thor Villians for me ..
