Jim Steranko on Jack Kirby's New Gods


On Sunday nights, Jim Steranko holds court on ebay and answers questions from fans for hours. It's always a lively and fun discussion and yesterday Steranko had a superlative comment about Jack Kirby:

asked
"Jim, ever thought of drawing NEW GODS? I really think you would crush it on that book."

answered
"When Kirby was at the top of his game--it was HIS GAME for decades--no way no one could ace The King! He was the Best of the Best!"

 
Of course Jim S. and his escape artist background served as the real-life inspiration for Jack Kirby's Mister Miracle character, and an article about Steranko graces the pages of the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly.
