Supergraphics Super Calendar by Jim Steranko and Jack Kirby
Bout forty years ago, Steranko put out a superhero calendar with each month illustrated by a golden-age great. Bout twenty years ago, he tackled Kirby's Stuntman contribution to the calendar, and vee-oh-la, as Bugs Bunny would say

Young Axus by Barry Smith
It's like Conan on steroids, or, more aptly, how Conan would look around issue # 100 or so if someone had had the genius to help the genius keep doin his thing on the comic
Sweet'n Simple Silver Surfer by Jack Kirby
This looks like a fairly quick sketch, and yet, like all the greats, even the quickest sketch can rock it
Jim Steranko Out of Africa
Don't know exactly what this is, but I dig it. First image from an old magazine interview of Steranko, then I saw it as the program cover, then the mailer. If you have a clue, have mercy, cuz I'd luvta know more

Beast Rider by Jack Kirby
Another great Kirby drawing that almost begs to be colorized---don't know if it was intended for some story, but it does just fine stand'n alone
Mister Miracle #10 Cover by Jack Kirby
Again, two great covers, and only one was published on the comic (wonder if Jack might have slid right in nicely with all these alternate cover schemes nowadays)

Pacific Rim
Don't spend much time in "The Present". Oh, well, guess I"ll see it on DVD. Really reminded me of Kirby
Luke Skywalker by Gil Kane
If you've checked out Star Hawks(lots on here, by the by), you know Gil Kane woulda been great drawing Star Wars
