Challengers of the Unknown #4 - Jack Kirby / Wally Wood art, Kirby cover

Jack Kirby

Challengers of the Unknown v1 #4, 1958 - An inventor uses a time machine for his own purposes, but can the Challengers stop him before he changes the course of history? Jack Kirby and Wally Wood team up on the first of five issues. Kirby's pencils display their usual competence, but it's Wood's inking that brings the art to a higher level. The story's four full splashes are certainly superb, but even the multi-panel pages have a care and precision not seen before in this series. This golden age story was later reprinted in Super DC Giant #S-25. This is 4 of 8 Challengers of the Unknown issues by Kirby and 1 of 5 Challengers of the Unknown issues by Wood.
