Avengers Poster #85 Captain America Thor Iron Man by Jack Kirby

Description

Wasp, Giant Man, Captain America, Iron Man and Thor by the legendary Jack Kirby! One of comics’ most iconic covers: The Avengers #4 (March 1964), the issue where The Avengers recovered the frozen body of Captain America! In 1940, Kirby and writer-editor Joe Simon created the highly successful superhero character Captain America for Timely Comics, predecessor of Marvel Comics. In the 1960s, he and writer-editor Stan Lee co-created many of Marvel’s major characters, including the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and the Hulk. Despite the high sales and critical acclaim of the Lee-Kirby titles, however, Kirby felt treated unfairly, and left the company in 1970 for rival DC.
