Jack Kirby and Neal Adams - Original Cover Art
Jack Kirby and Neal Adams - Original Cover Art for Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #144 (DC, 1971). The penultimate Kirby/Adams cover from Jack's run on Jimmy Olsen, this is also one of the finest, with an iconic shot of Superman soaring over the Loch Ness-esque critter rising from the Deep Scottish Lake, while the Newsboy Legion tumbles out of their raft. No one could match Kirby for sheer power, but the Adams touch takes the work to a whole new level. There are relatively few Kirby/Adams collaborations, so you'd be wise not to ignore this rare opportunity. The artwork measures 11" x 17" and has been tastefully matted and framed. The art was signed by Kirby in the upper right quadrant, though the ink has faded somewhat. A knockout cover from two of the greatest talents ever to work in comics -- c'mon, what more do you want?!? Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
