#JackedKirby - Booster Cogburn aka The Dislocated Spine!!! 💥💥💥 In 1983 Jack Kirby teamed up with fellow industry malcontent Steve Gerber to help raise money to sue Marvel through a collaboration. The resulting project was Destroyer Duck for Eclipse Comics, which was an anthology comic title featuring the industries top tier talent... the main storyline was Destroyer Duck by Kirby & Gerber! 💥💥💥 #Issue2 was published in February of 1983 and featured one of the wackiest characters ever, Booster Cogburn aka The Dislocated Spine!!! Cogburn is a clone created by Godcorp (the money grubbing corporate entity that was supposed to be Marvel) a very unique gift. When killed, his spine would detach from the body and regenerate into a new version of himself. After being ambushed (Pics 1-3) Cogburn is left to die... and we see the resurrection process take place with the Spine becoming sentient and escaping the dead corpse (Pics 4 and 5) leaving us with a reinvigorated Cogburn Clone later in the Issue (pic 6) to exact some revenge! Cool concept brought to life by the King for a good cause! 💥💥💥 Trivia Note - While many comic luminaries such as Jerry Siegel, Mark Evanier, Buzz Dixon, Dan Spiegle, Martin Pasko, Frank Miller and Scott Shaw worked on the books various stories and covers through its 6 Issue run, it is most well know for the first appearance of Sergio Aragones’s long running barbarian comic Groo the Wanderer in Issue 1! 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #Kirby #KingKirby #SteveGerber #DestroyerDuck #Groo #EclipseComics #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #80sComics #ComicsOfThe80s #Godcorp #BoosterCogburn #TheDislocatedSpine #IGComics #ComicsOfIG #Clones https://www.instagram.com/p/BxvCBP_gP9L/?igshid=1qth1e3uqffsh
