Machine Man #1 - Jack Kirby art & cover + 1st issue

Jack Kirby

Machine Man v1 #1, 1978 - Originally debuting in 2001: A Space Odyssey #8, the living robot begins his own self-titled series with this first issue. Jack Kirby creates yet another compelling hero for Marvel, one of his second wave of characters during the mid-1970s. His artwork is reliably frenetic, residing within carefully constructed layouts. Mike Royer builds upon the excitement with clearly defined and faithfully applied inking. Kirby's cover, while iconic, slightly lacks the impact of his interiors.
