#JackedKirby - Happy 90th Birthday Stanley!!! 🚀🛸🚀 Today would have been Stanley Kubrick’s 90th Birthday. He is my favorite director ever (this is Mike!) and has to be considered one of the most visual auteurs in the history of film... the man knew how to get the EXACT look in a shot he wanted... and if he didn’t get that exact look, he would have them shoot it again.. and again... AND AGAIN!!! 💥💥💥 This visual style allowed him to break existing molds and create a masterpiece in 2001: A Space Odyssey in 1968. And it made for a perfect match in putting Jack Kirby on the Treasury Edition adaption for the movie for Marvel in 1976!!! 🚀🛸🚀 It’s amazing how exact Jack nailed the visuals while still incorporating his own twist and flair to the pages. He also was able to mirror some of the more iconic images (the spinning wheel, the exterior ship shot, the suits, etc) to the page so that he captured the essence of the source film. A match made in heaven!!! 💥💥💥 I love the Treasury Edition, because it’s the only thing that could even come close to the visual greatness of the film that Kubrick gave to the world. Happy birthday Stanley... thanks for the memories and enjoy a cigar with Jack up there for us!!! 🛸🚀🛸 #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #2001aspaceodyssey #2001spaceodyssey #treasuryedition #StanleyKubrick #HappyBirthday #MovieAdaption #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #igcomics #igcomicfamily #igcomiccommunity #comicsofig #comicsofinstagram #70sComics #ComicsOfThe70s
