#JackedKirby - Earthquake at The Baxter Building!!! 💥💥💥 There are few opening splash pages that I love more than the one that opens #Issue31 of the Fantastic Four (October of 1964). While the issue Itself isn’t so hot... this opening splash is PHENOMENAL!!! 💥💥💥 The issue opens up with the Fab 4 at home when an Earthquake rocks NYC. Jack decides to show them being tossed around the living room of the Baxter Building, with household items and furniture flying around the heroes as they try to use their powers to solve the problem!!! 💥💥💥 This issue sees the return of the Mole Man, and also the first appearance of Sue and Johnny’s dad Franklin Storm. But even with all that packed in it’s a pretty humdrum Issue... but this opening page is loaded with ACTION!!! 💥💥💥 On another note, check out the credit box on the opening page (pic 2) which taps Stan Lee as the “WRITER” and Jack Kirby as the “ILLUSTRATOR”. This ever changing title for Jack fluctuated regularly, with Issue 30 saying “Drawn By” And Issue 32 saying “ILLUSTRATIONS BY”. Kirby’s credits changed a lot... but Stan’s always stayed exactly the same. WRITER... as if no one else had anything to do with writing the story!!! 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #KingKirby #FantasticFour #FF #Kirby #MoleMan #Earthquake #StanLee #LeeAndKirby #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #Comicbooks #60sComics #ComicsOfThe60s #TheRun #Credits #CreditBoxes https://www.instagram.com/p/Byl3gfFhXnX/?igshid=ilsqt6p2zrud
