At the beginning (roughly) of the century, I finally made it to Portland, and my one and only visit to the legendary Powell's Book Store. Saw a ton of amazeball books there, including a stack of the over-sized coffe-table book The Silver Age of Comic Book Art. On sale for five books. Nice. I often wonder why the heck I didn't hold onto it, but, hey, there's a lot more precious stuff out there than this that I sold for a moment's pleasure, so no surprise. The book was full of these wonderful giant two-page splashes by Kirby, Ditko, Kirby, Steranko, Kirby, Adams, Kirby, and Kane
