Zip File of 100 plus Kirby Double Page Spreads

Click Title for link
Been reading my Showcase anthology of Challengers of the Unknown. Half and half of Kirby and Bob Brown ( Space Ranger) Notice that one panel of the guy giving an outline of the bad guy's goal. Complete game design in one sentence.
The Bob Brown cover art really blew my mind. I saw that and realized that was one of my favorite images of all my comic book reading of that time. Aliens, Giants, exciting angles, great posing. Then the interior. It all came back in a big way. I always loved Space Ranger.
Kirby wins of course.
But he's diluted by all the Wally Wood "improvement" on a lot of the inking. That flying panel is Kirby and Wood. Great poses.

Check out my Labor of Hercules. Taking my phonebook sized Fantastic Four essentials and turning it into a bunch of pages stored in sleeves. Now I can scan at will and get great scans.

Thanks Rick. We'll see if this CTN show this weekend pans out.
I'll also mail the new book to a couple of local agency outfits .

Logistics on getting out from under my obligations here in Culver City would require some sort of drastic legal declaration.
So I'm looking local.

I wouldn't discount getting a gig where you check in from time to time and work as a contractor or full-time remote. However, you know your situation way better than I do, so I should just leave it at that.

I can't wait for your book to arrive... I've been haunting the mailroom at work for a couple of days now. :)

If anyone else has Roku or something similar, check out the Picassa channel. I have it on right now. Everything I've uploaded to blogs is now being randomly, slideshow displayed on my TV. Pretty dang cool.
