An excellent example, made all the more desirable because of the "It tickles!" panel. But seriously, what more could you want from a Superman daily? Congrats.

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.

That's a great page - I just picked up the following one. 

Congratulations! I considered bidding on that but ultimately declined. Glad it went to a good home.

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.

The best page in the story. Didn't Dave Schwartz have this page and another great page that you bought from him? I saw them both. Either you showed them to me or he did. One of my favorite Thor villians. You can feel the energy off this page. Jack Kirby and Chic Stone the best.  

I have acquired several choice items from Dave over the years but this definitely did not come from him. The dealer I purchased this from sadly passed away shortly after I got this. Unfortunately, I don't recall his name but I do remember he set up at the Shrine Show often and this page went unsold for several months before I picked it up.

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.

This is terrific!

Thanks. Ditko art, especially Spider-Man art, was always just out of my price range and out of reach for me, even 30 years ago when I got this. So I thought this was the next best thing.

Lovely monster large art splash by the King!  They always find a nice pair of trunks before heading out of the house into the public because they can't stand to suffer public humiliation.

Not just trunks but a nice onesie complete with booties.

Absolutely great page. I loved Mignola's two Thor back up stories but have never seen any art from #408. I have a page from #409, which I hope to post soon.

Byrne selflessly had to keep a lid on his own style to make these Namor pages flow!  These brought the classic stories back in a real nice paper to appeal to the 80's collectors who didn't get as many reprints as a decade before.

Exactly! I should have just cut and pasted your comment into my description - you summed it up perfectly.

I've been searching for this cover forever.  Glad to see it finally turn up!  I used to own the Spider-femme one.

Long ago, I had Super-Babe, too.

You have an amazing collection of Adam's work, particularly that Starfire ceneterfold - wow!
