Comment

Le FOURTH WORLD de Jack KIRBY est peut être son Oeuvre Majeure, sa création la plus personnelle .
Apres la destruction des anciens Dieux suite à une guerre sans merci, les nouveaux Dieux, bien que résidant sur deux mondes distincts et différents,... continuent le combat en venant sur Terre régler leurs comptes.
Orion, Lightray, Darkseid, Esak, Metron, Highfather, Seagrin, Kalibak, Mantis et les autres , comme sortis d'une mythologie nouvelle vivent des aventures comme Jupiter,Junon, Mercure Poséidon ou ZEUS, Athéna, Aphrodite avant eux.
Cette splash page du numéro 4, encrée délicatement et précisément (une fois n'est pas coutume) par Vince COLLETTA, conte la mort de SEAGRIN.

About Jack Kirby

Jack Kirby ( August 28, 1917 – February 6, 1994), born Jacob Kurtzberg, was an American comic book artist, writer, and editor widely regarded as one of the medium's major innovators and one of its most prolific and influential creators. Kirby grew up poor in New York City, and learned to draw cartoon figures by tracing characters from comic strips and editorial cartoons. He entered the nascent comics industry in the 1930s, drawing various comics features under different pen names, including Jack Curtiss, before ultimately settling on Jack Kirby. In 1940, he and writer-editor Joe Simon created the highly successful superhero character Captain America for Timely Comics, predecessor of Marvel Comics. During the 1940s, Kirby, generally teamed with Simon, created numerous characters for that company and for National Comics, later to become DC Comics.
