We love comics over here in the Mondo offices, and what we love most about the Marvel mags and their characters is that they’re relatable. It doesn’t matter if it’s a grounded Earthling from Yancy Street, an ancient celestial god, or a sky rider from the space ways: everybody has something to deal with.
Tomorrow, we’ve got three gorgeous new posters pulled from the hallowed history of Marvel Comics and two of its most titanic creators: Jack “King” Kirby and “Big” John Buscema.
First up are two pieces from arguably the greatest comics artist of all time: Jack Kirby. “What Galactus Knows…” is pulled from The Mighty Thor #160 and is a beautiful technicolor dream of one of Kirby’s own creations: Galactus.
“This Man… This Monster,” comes from 1966’s Fantastic Four #51 and, over five decades later, is STILL one of the greatest illustrated epics of Marvel history. Check it out.
Finally, we’ve got a panel from Silver Surfer #1 by the great John Buscema. Norrin Radd holds a dear place in our heart. We’re proud to celebrate the Surfer for who he truly is: an ever graceful, mightily powerful, eternal sad boy.
These posters will be available on Thursday, December 9 at 11AM CT on The Drop at mondoshop.com.
