Yesterday at @NY_Comic_Con, The Year of Jack Kirby: A Star-Studded Celebration!  Dean Haspiel: “It was unmistakable when you saw a Jack Kirby drawing… It wasn’t just… a great pose –although he drew great poses– it was in the service of narrative. Always!”  [@comicsbeat]

As a Star Trek fan & a history buff, I’m DELIGHTED to discover the ancient Roman politician Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus made his short career on a series of unprecedented political moves. Big-time rule bender. Sounds like James T. (for Tiberius) Kirk, right?

*If it’s not clear, by ‘ladder to heaven’ I mean an unending, impossible, and arguably fruitless task that just goes on until you die trying. Sisyphean, even. I’m just happy whenever one of these makes total logical sense!

To see his surviving grandchildren unveil it & hear him celebrated by @TomBrevoort & the always eloquent Paul Levitz was wonderful. Knowing from a Mark Evanier interview that, at one time, Kirby was pained by the sight of his uncredited creations…  2/5
