What if Kirby
Most comics websites focus on the colorful covers, and why not? But Tom Kraft’s homage to Jack Kirby takes the great comic-book creator’s photocopied pencil pages, recreates them, and then invites other comic-book artists to re-ink them in the site’s Creations section, hence the “What if” in the site’s name. There is also a Gallery featuring more than 400 pages of Jack Kirby art, from a “Captain America” comic in 1941 to a portrait of Jimmy Olsen in 1987. The other major section of the site features biographies of many of Kirby’s most important contemporaries and collaborators.
