Swipe! WWJKD? I wondered, What Would Jack Kirby Do if he were doing our little webcomic. So, I went to the man himself. I cracked my Fantastic Four Omnibus and found a panel of Captain America shield-punching the Hulk while Rick Jones stood dumb-struck in the background. The I did a quick modified study of it with a felt-tip on a yellow legal pad.
Then I traced that with a brush on tracing vellum. Then I free-handed a Kirby-lite close-up on another sheet of tracing vellum. Then I did the words underneath on the scraps I cropped off. Then I took a piece of paper with pen ink shakeoffs for the blood splatter.
Then I put it all together in photoshop for biggens.
Now, it's Kenny's turn!

It's Marcos's turn.
That chainmail effect is great, nice panel all rounds.
looks good!
kirby wouldn't have used photoshop!
Kenny, Marcos... you're all the same to me.
I think I killed a brush on that chainmail. Stupid splitting hairs.
Marcos, you're such a Kirby fundamentalist!
I say, if Kirby were alive today, and younger, he would so have used photoshop.
Go back to your horse and buggy, Al K. Hata!
