Fantastic Four Artist Edition Question
0

3 posts in this topic

I'm thinking about picking up a Jack Kirby Artist Edition book and realized there were two different ones ( Jack Kirby’s Fantastic Four World’s Greatest Artist’s Edition HC  and Jack Kirby’s Fantastic Four: Artist’s Edition HC).  Just wondering for those that own or have read both which one blew your mind more?  I realize they are probably both amazing (It's Jack Kirby afterall), but if you had to pick one which one would you choose?

I have both.

If money is not an issue, I would definitely get the World's Greatest Artist Edition, this is because the art is 'twice-up'. That means the size is 12.5 X 18.5, instead of the typical 10 x 15 comics, sometime after the silver age.

You get a monstrous representation of Kirby Art, when artist's drew on much larger pages. On the other hand, you may like the art images more on the later issues, and the cost is typically lower.

Here's some great reviews with plenty of images.
