I’ve been alerted to several questionable alleged Kirby pencil drawings on eBay in the last few days. All are clearly forgeries to my eye. You might view them and think differently, but I’ve seen an awful lot of real Kirby drawings over the years, including the originals these were swiped/traced from. (One was printed in [...]]]> http://twomorrows.com/blog/tnt/beware-kirby-fakes-on-ebay/feed/ 0 http://twomorrows.com/blog/tnt/quality-time-with-my-daughter/ http://twomorrows.com/blog/tnt/quality-time-with-my-daughter/#comments Tue, 28 Apr 2009 15:46:04 +0000 Mr. Morrow http://twomorrows.com/blog/?p=466
My 7-year-old daughter Lily and I spent the weekend at Camp Seagull near New Bern, NC; it’s a camp owned by the YMCA, and we were there for the big Spring Outing for our Y-Princesses tribe. The YMCA has been offering the Princess (for girls) and Guides (for boys) program for decades, and our area [...]]]> http://twomorrows.com/blog/tnt/quality-time-with-my-daughter/feed/ 0 http://twomorrows.com/blog/tnt/its-the-age-of-tv-heroes/ http://twomorrows.com/blog/tnt/its-the-age-of-tv-heroes/#comments Mon, 20 Apr 2009 17:22:31 +0000 Mr. Morrow http://twomorrows.com/blog/?p=463
We’re close to finished with George Khoury and Jason Hofius’ new book Age of TV Heroes (which documents all the live-action TV shows over the years that featured super-heroes, through behind-the-scenes accounts and interviews with the major stars, like Adam West, Lynda Carter, Jackson Bostwick, and more).

Ahh, that word makes me hearken back to my 1980s college days at Auburn University, with the Go-Gos on the radio while I sat at my between-classes job, drawing designs at the local t-shirt shop.

After way too many weeks of struggling with it, the new Jack Kirby Collector (#52) is off to press, and the Digital Edition is already posted for downloading. This was one of the hardest to produce yet, due mainly to one article in it about an unused Thor story by Jack.

Our bud Randy “Sarge” Sargent clued me in that he was watching TV last night, and came across this segment of “Surfin’ with Kirk” on local station WTAP in Parkersburg, West Virginia.
