Item Description

JACK KIRBY's arrival at DC was the biggest comics news of 1970! I remember the excitement and speculation about just what he would do with the established DC characters . . . or new ones born of his limitless imagination! One of the titles was  given to him to revitalize wasSUPERMAN'S PAL, JIMMY OLSEN - a title that had been around since 1954 and desperately needed a breath of new life - exactly what KIRBY could provide! 

With a cover by Neal Adams, here is issues #136 from 1971.  It features the story "The Saga of the DNAliens!", written and penciled by Jack Kirby and inked by Vince Coletta (with inking by Murphy Anderson on most of the Superman and Jimmy Olsen faces throughout the story).  

This is a great-looking copy of one of the foundational titles of Kirby's 'Fourth World' opus. The binding is strong, the pages are supple and bright, there are no splits, tears, separations, or pieces missing; not even any stress lines!  A terrific part of any Kirby collection! Overstreet values this issue in this 8.0 VF condition at $25!! . . . but we're offering it for just $17 . .  and along with our L•O•W  shipping, it's the most affordable copy here on HipComic!
