Into Mystery #83-89: Early Lee/Kirby
As with most of the newly launched titles, Lee and Kirby worked on them early on to establish a direction, but their actual work on Thor diminished as the Marvel titles expanded.Journey Into Mystery #90-100: Lee/Kirby fill-ins These issues were mostly written by Larry Lieber (Stan’s brother). Some of the fill-in artists included Don Heck and Joe Sinnott (one of Marvel’s legendary inkers).JiM #101-125, Thor #136-177: The Lee/Kirby Thor Era Stan Lee and Jack Kirby return to the title with vigor and expand the Norse mythology universe. My all-time favorite Jack Kirby-Thor inker is Chic Stone (issues #102-114). After Jim #115, Vince Colletta became the regular Thor inker. I’ve never really been Colletta’s big fan. His inking style, in my opinion, didn’t do much for Kirby’s pencils. The inking seemed to soften Kirby’s dynamic pencils.(...) |
