Battle #66 - Jack Kirby art & cover

Jack Kirby

Battle v1 #66, 1959 - Jack Kirby chronicles the history of the submarine, dating back to early ideas in the 17th century. Drawn simply and informatively, the story has a documentary feel. It's effectiveness partially compensates for the atypically weak cover. Kirby's layout seems hurried, filling in every available space. This issue also contains some notable artwork by Jack Davis. Other artists in this golden age comic include Don Heck, John Severin and Joe Sinnott. This is 3 of 7 Battle issues by Kirby.
