The Marvelmania Posters by Jack Kirby

  1. Where can I find the Thor poster above? I'm looking for an original ideally, but I would take a reprint. I'd pay $200 for an original in good shape....

  2. Wow, that is a great question. Heritage Auctions has them occasionally, and even rarer is the ebay option--I have one, but I was a fool and many years ago cut it into 8 1/2 by 11 pages to put in my binders. This image can be enlarged, but the process to print it poster-size would be involved and expensive. You might have some luck by contacting John Morrow over at TwoMorrows Publishing, and of course they reproduced it for one of their Kirby Collector collection covers. I'm sorry, cause I've known that passion myself. I spent years looking for the Doc Doom poster, and finally settled for a reprint off ebay

  3. GREAT stuff! I had the Surfer poster up at Nick Simon's website (before the site went down), but this is a much better-looking image.

    See my blog for more cool Kirby stuff (plus some Ditko, Powell and other things)...
