365 Days of KirbyTech, Day 101: The Skywalker's Destruction Ray

Two whole years before Star Wars hit the silver screen with the pew-pew-pew sound of zippy blasters, Denny O'Neil and Jack Kirby brought us the adventurers of a guy called...Skywalker*!

365 Days of DC House Ads, Day 239: Jack Kirby DC House Ad Week, Day 3: Giant Rats, Dingbats, and a Most Magnificent Hat

Welcome back, my friends, to the Jack Kirby House Ad fun that never ends! (Until Saturday.) Here's some house ads from Jack Kirby's post-Fourth World work at DC:


House ad for Kamandi, the Last Boy on Earth #2 (December 1972-January 1973);
printed in Weird Mystery Tales #3 (November-December 1972)
Comic cover art: pencils by Jack Kirby, inks by Mike Royer
Wow, the typography in that ad isn't very good. Was Gaspar Saladino on vacation that week?
