I did not see these two. Maybe they are in the list and I missed them.

Yes, but for some reason he doesn't get as much credit for it

I love them both! I'm a fool nerd for anything that either one did -- I just wish I could do layout like Jack and be as consistent and realistic as Joe.

Kirby's legacy being seemly greater than Kubert's probably has to do with his involvement in creating tha "Marvel Age".

Good point. Being Stan Lee's most used artist on those legendary early Marvels didn't hurt Kirby's legacy.

From an art history standpoint, I'd suggest Burne Hogarth and Jack Hamm.

I always thought your style, if it had to be compared, was a meld of Windsor-Smith and Byrne. The first because of the way you do your layouts and your faces, but Byrn because of the "rawness". It's not a cribbed style as much as it is your style. I definitely noted an evolution and, dare I say it, an improvement, during the 18 chapters of Playing God.

I dunno. I thought chapter 18 was just as bad as 1

:o


Moo hoo ha ha. I'm kidding. I think the Byrne comment definitely makes sense. Regardless, it's really good art.
