'Kirby Goes To Hollywood' as the Jack Kirby Collector examines the King's forays in and out of Hollywood. Inside you will find a comparison of the most recent Star Wars films to 'The Pact' and 'Himon' Fourth World issues, a look at his time at Ruby-Spears animation as a designer on Thundarr the Barbarian, how Kirby inspired Hollywood productions from the 1940s through today, plus how television and film were worked into Kirby's comics work. Cover price $10.95.

Focusing on 'Unfinished Sagas' - series, stories, and arcs Jack never got to properly finish, and concepts that never got off the ground. From True Divorce Cases and Raam to Kobra and Dingbats, there'll be gobs of unused art and text, including a complete story from Soul Love! We'll also present the rarely-seen 1946 Boy Explorers story, 'Trip to the Moon', two Kirby Tribute Panels, plus Mark Evanier and our other regular columnists, pencil art galleries, and more! All behind two Kirby covers (the 'Galaxy Green' presentation, inked by Mike Royer, and the unseen cover for Soul Love)! Edited by John Morrow. Cover price $10.95.

Jack Kirby Collector #57 focuses on 'Legendary Kirby,' spotlighting Jack's use of the stuff of legend in his work! From angels and devils to Demons and demi-gods, we'll examine how Kirby put his own spin on classic folklore to immortalize it in the comics realm. There's Tony Isabella on Satan's Six (with Kirby's unseen layouts for the series), Jon B. Cooke with behind-the-scenes secrets of Atlas and other Kirby DC titles, the Biblical inspirations behind Devil Dinosaur, Thor as viewed through the eyes of mythologist Joseph Campbell, and how the legendary JFK Conspiracy affected Jack!
