Yellow Claw #2 - Jack Kirby art

Yellow Claw #2

Yellow Claw v1 #2, 1956 - The mysterious Yellow Claw was a copy of an earlier Asian villain, Fu Manchu, created by author Sax Rohmer. In this second issue, Jack Kirby illustrates four short but engaging stories. Each begins with a bold opening splash, artfully and thoughtfully composed. According to my sources, Kirby inked his own pencils, which is a rarity in his four decade career. Not dissimilar from his collaborations with Joe Simon, the drawings have a recognizable appeal. Other artists in this golden age comic include Jim Mooney and Don Heck. Cover by John Severin. This is 1 of 3 Yellow Claw issues by Kirby.
