Captain America, the Hulk, Fantastic Four… If you read superhero comics,
you’ve probably liked a character created or co-created by Jack Kirby. He made the
battles of superheroes like Thor feel larger than life but he also grew up fighting
in the streets of New York City’s gritty Lower East Side neighborhood. And he
made an awesome, rarely-seen comic about it.
Last week, a pop-up museum honoring Kirby showed off some of
the legendary artist’s work just a few blocks away from where he grew up. Being
a big
Kirby fan, I went over to the Kirby Pop-Up Museum to see the blown-up
artwork on display and talk to organizer Randolph Hoppe about Kirby’s life. And
if you love Kirby, too, share a your favorite piece of his artwork in the
comments below.
