Many of you have let me know that some of my image pairings & arrangements pop up in other venues such as Facebook Swipe groups (esp. the great COMICS SWIPES Facebook group). Well, I'm flattered the posts are popular and that people enjoy PANELOCITY's swipes and "inspired bys", regardless of where they are presented. After all, the Internet is meant for sharing, right?

Fantastic Four #148 (Pt 35) Cap 'n' Trapster Are the Bee's Knees...Plus Gil Kane!


Fantastic Four 148 Frightful Four
1974: Fantastic Four #148  Rich Buckler
Tales of Suspense 85 Batroc
1966: Tales of Suspense #85  Jack Kirby

Bonus! Gil Kane's Kirbyesque Cap, a few issues later in ToS #88
Tales of Suspense 88 If Bucky Lives
Tales of Suspense #88 Gil Kane

Like many other Marvel pencilers, Gil Kane was asked to approximate Kirby's dynamic storytelling. Check out Kane's 1960s Captain America Suspense run and you'll see plenty of Kirby references--another Cap example here!
