Race for the Moon #1 - non-attributed Jack Kirby cover, mis-attributed Kirby art + 1st issue

Jack Kirby

Race for the Moon v1 #1, 1958 - Part of Harvey Comics' brief foray into the science fiction genre during the 1950s, this title was ultimately short lived. According to some comic book guides, Jack Kirby and Joe Simon drew an interior half-page but this doesn't appear to be the case. Bob Powell appears to have done most of the artwork. The same sources also neglected to mention Simon and Kirby's capable cover on this first issue. The layout seems sparse at first, but the artist perhaps wanted to emphasize the vastness of space. This issue also includes artwork by Bob Powell.
