Happy Birthday, Jack Kirby!

Jack Kirby Week Banner

Join me in toasting The King of Comics on his ninety-second birthday! If you were still here with us, Jack, I'd bake you a cake.

What am I sayin'? Of course you're still here...when every day I open a comic book and see your work, you'll never leave us.
