Fantastic Four #93 - Jack Kirby art & cover

Jack Kirby

Fantastic Four v1 #93, 1969 - Whisked away to the Skrull planet, the Thing must fight in a gladiator arena in order to save the Earth. Oddly enough, the shape-shifting Skrulls choose to emulate the gangsters of the 1930s. Jack Kirby captures the era faithfully from the clothing and hairstyles to the buildings and automobiles (especially page 17). Competently drawn, the high point is a full page splash of the Thing recoiling from a punch. Kirby's cover is not among his best on the series, hampered by the lumbering inks of Frank Giacoia. This is 93 of 116 Fantastic Four issues by Kirby.
