SPECTACULAR SPLASH PAGES #11...


Images copyright DC COMICS

A double-spread spectacular splash page by JACK KIRBY for your appreciation, peeps. MIKE ROYER supplied the inks, and readers experienced the comics equivalent of a wide-screen movie image - something that the 'King' excelled at.  I've applied a little computer 'magic' to disguise the gutter between the two pages, so lap it up, Crivvies - this one's for you!

    Dunno about 'intact'. CJ. Going by the angle it's leaning at, I'd say it's been broken off its base.

    Ah yes! - Definitely was a beauty, seen here better than ever before!
    Page one saw Kamandi, rowing a boat in the floodwater. He turned a corner, we turned the page and this is the sight that met his eyes!
    BTW, is Kamandi related to Ka-Zar?

    Yes, JP, Kamandi IS related to Ka-Zar - by virtue of both having been drawn by Jack Kirby.
