Kirby at Marvel A look at what the original art and published work has to tell us about Jack Kirby's work in comics in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

One of the best books on Jack Kirby ever written. Eye-opening!

Thank you for your very thoughtful article on Daredevil and the creative changes.

I wonder if you would write about Marvel refusing to credit Daredevil's co-creator Jack Kirby, who created the costume and did the first sketch. Marvel has been erasing Kirby for years, despite Kirby's powerful role.

Oh, good. I guess the timing was just coincidental. (These days its easy to worry that any loss of anything good might be permanent.)

Hey, do you know when your storefront will be back up?

I recommended Smut Peddler to some colleagues and they said they could not get on your store (and did not want to buy through Amazon.)

Read the work of Dr. Carol Tilly @anuncivilphd.bsky.social

She brings the receipts.

I have read it. Have you read how he FAKED his research & LIED to Congress about the data to get massive publicity for his BS book?

And then stop kids reading for fun?

This is your hero?

Do you take solace in how his demonization playbook was used against rock music, video games, and more?

Comic books' real-life supervillain: psychiatrist Fredric Wertham In the New York Times article about my research on psychiatrist Fredric Wertham, novelist Michael Chabon referred to the doctor as Ahab, obsessed with the white whale of comics. Well,…

Iron Spike, you should know that Dr. Tilley is the researcher who exposed Wertham as a fraud who falsified his data.

She is a genuine hero of comics and an all around good person. Pass it on.

Deeply empathetic doctors do not falsify their research to create an issue where none exists. His own research debunked him, so he faked it to get the results he wanted.

He should have lost his license and never been allowed around kids again.

Dr. Wertham was far worse for kids than comics.

Everybody welcome Dr. Carol Tilley to Bluesky.

@anuncivilphd.bsky.social

She's the scholar who proved that comic book censor Wertham was a liar and fraud who falsified research.

Wertham lied to Congress, devastated an industry, ruined countless lives, and stopped kids reading for pleasure.

You are right. Don't let the pro-censorship forces gaslight what a lying, cheating, destructive fraud Wertham was.

Also, let's all roll out the red carpet for @anuncivilphd.bsky.social.

Welcome to Bluesky.

Marvel STOLE Jim Steranko's writing credit on Captain America.

In 2015, Steranko's writing credits were on Marvel's site. Now they say... what else?

Stan Lee.

Talk about Marvel Zombies!

Did Marvel even tell Steranko first?

How Marc Tyler Nobleman Rescued the Legacy of Batman Co-Creator Bill Finger How Marc Tyler Nobleman Rescued the Legacy of Batman Co-Creator Bill Finger

DC Comics ADMITTED that Bill Finger wrote Batman, despite the lies of Bob Kane. Nearly a decade ago.

So when will Marvel step up and ADMIT that Jack Kirby wrote Fantastic Four, Hulk, Iron Man, Avengers, Ant Man, X-Men, etc.?

Why are you lying, Marvel?
