I love this retrospective cover, showing off just a few of Kirby’s greatest creations. If it was just the characters like Captain America, Darkseid and Captain Victory, it would be a nice and appropriate cover. But it’s the circular inset that makes this a great cover– with Guardian and the Newsboy Legion looking over Kirby’s shoulder as he draws. It’s easy to imagine that they’re marveling at the rest of the AH cover.
