Inroducing: Who ARTed
Listen now
Description
This week I am introducing you all to my other art podcast, Who ARTed. If you enjoy learning the stories that make up art history, check out Who ARTed on your favorite podcast app. This is my episode about Jack Kirby, the legendary comic book artist. Jack Kirby created some of the biggest names in the golden age of comics including: Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Iron Man, Black Panther, The Incredible Hulk. He basically populated the Marvel Universe. In 1970 though he felt like he wasn't getting the credit he deserved there and left Marvel for DC. There he created a series, Fourth World which I imagine he thought would demonstrate his brilliance and make Marvel wish they hadn’t blown it with him. The series was a commercial flop so maybe not the great “I told you so” he likely envisioned as he left Marvel for their rival, but some of the New Gods from the series live on in the DC Universe.
