People often cite the remarks done to The Comics Journal, where Kirby claimed he was the creator of the main Marvel characters, like a slip of the tongue pushed by Gary Groth and Roz, but in fact Kirby had been saying the same in many interviews along the decades.

In Comics Feature #34 (March, 1985) Kirby also claimed the creation of the monster stories, FF, Hulk, Thor, even HIS pitch of Spider-Man, finally discarded partially. His Blitzkrieg.

The best part in this interview conducted by James van Hise is that Kirby also vindicated the creation of Galactus and the Silver Surfer.

It's also interesting that, at last, a conducter compared Kirby's claims with the BS that appeared in the Origins books.

From a colorist's perspective.

Another Kirby appreciation post. Nobody knows who colored the Kirby run of Thor, but the colors were great overall. On the left is a page from my copy of issue 162, a classic pinup of Odin. For curiosity, I checked what the current reprints look like (on the right). As always, the colors are distorted and super-saturated. While I love looking at the original printed colors, the modern ones make the image confusing and not pleasant to look at. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1aK4yjQYaQ/?mibextid=wwXIfr
