Most comics fans in my age bracket know of Kirby's incredible visual and editorial influence and the younger ones who don't should.  Kirby's drawing hand brought many popular characters to printed life such as the Fantastic Four, Thor, Iron Man, Hulk, the X-Men and The Silver Surfer.

I owned that comic on the right at one time.  When I am brave enough to climb into my mother's attic again it will be mine once more!

And yes, that's Stan Lee in the Mr. Fantastic role and Kirby is The Thing.
