#JackedKirby - RIP Joltin Joe Sinnott!!!! 💥💥💥 Today we got the sad new that legendary comic book industry professional and long term Jack Kirby collaborator Joe Sinnott passes away at the age of 93. Today is a sad day indeed... 💥💥💥 I say “comic industry professional” instead of INKER because Sinnott was much more then an inker. That may be what he is most well know for, but he has written/pencilled many stories and strips through the years as well as done other industry duties. So to reduce him to just being an inker would be a disservice. 💥💥💥 That being said, most people in the comics industry and fans consider him to be one of the finest inkers to ever ink a page. Stan Lee is quoted as saying “Pencillers would hurl all sorts of dire threats at me if I didn’t make certain that Joe... and ONLY JOE... inked their pages!” Joe and Jack worked together magically many times, but it was on the FF they became synonymous with each other. He inked FF #Issue5 (1st appearance of Dr Doom) and left the book before returning from some outside work to the book on #Issue44 in Nov of 1965. He would remain on the book through #Issue102 (Kirby’s last FF in Sept of 1970) and then continued on the book UNTIL 1981!!! That’s 16 straight years!!! 💥💥💥 What’s most amazing is despite working together so long, Kirby and Sinnott never ACTUALLY MET until the 70s at a comic convention. This was illustrated by @tom_scioli in a cool panel (pic 5). Everything was done by mail! 💥💥💥 Joe was a proud vet, a consummate professional and the pinnacle of inking in the industry. He will be greatly missed. @walter.simonson.5 said in a post “anyone who met Joe became his friend”. Just looking at him and hearing stories about him makes me believe that to be true! 💥💥💥 Rest well Joe... and condolences can be sent to the Sinnott Family at 27 Spaulding Lane in Saugerties, NY 12477 💥💥💥 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #JoeSinnott #Sinnott #RIP #SinnottAndKirby #Inker #ComicInker #FF #FantasticFour #MarvelComics #StanLee #60sComics #70sComics #80sComics #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #GoneButNotFoegotten @joltin.joe.sinnott https://www.instagram.com/p/CB3mavQhPdw/?igshid=1ihocu6qyibny
