#JackedKirby - Faces in The Krackle... Kirby style! ๐ฑ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฟโโ๏ธ Kirby was the king of reworking layouts and design concepts, tightening things up he had done before and making them even better (in certain cases of course... sometimes the original was better too!). Thatโs probably because some of his design ideas and layouts are SO GREAT they deserve a second (and sometimes third) reworking... ๐ฑ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฟโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฝโโ๏ธ Check out the Kirby Krackle infused heads from a cover of Thor in โ66 and a story interior from โ70... very similar!!! ๐ฑ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฟโโ๏ธ The first 2 pics of this post show the cover of Thor #Issue133 from October of 1966. It is the first full issue of Ego the Living Planet (his first appearance is technically the last page of Issue 132), but the way Ego is portrayed on the cover looks much different then his interior looks.... ๐ฑ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฟโโ๏ธ In pics 3/4 we have the opening splash to Chamber of Darkness #Issue4 from April of 1970. In this pic we see two witches conjuring a face out of a cauldron, and that face bears a striking resemblance to the Ego, specifically the way the face seems to emerge from the Kirby Krackle cloud! ๐ฑ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฟโโ๏ธ Pic 5 is another image of the face in the Krackle cloud from another page in the issue and pic 6 is a collage of all three faces to compare them... ๐ฑ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ฟโโ๏ธ Itโs not exactly similar (one of the faces has one eye!!! Lol..) but the layout concept of the face emerging from the clouds is eerily reminiscent.... what do you guys think?
