Jack Kirby Meets The Prisoner

Once again, the incredible datajunkie blindsides me with these scans of an unpublished Prisoner comic book by none other than Jack Kirby! [Link]

I've been working my way through The Prisoner lately (working? what a poor choice of word), and it's even better than I remember. It's so damned good it makes The Avengers look lame, and I love The Avengers. Seeing it rendered by Jack Kirby makes my brain tilt. Gosh.

I re-watched The Prisoner a few months ago when my local library got the DVDs. I like it more with each viewing. Even the final episode, which really pissed me off the first time I saw it, has acquired a certain appeal for me.

And Kirby. Brain tilt. Yeah.

The distorted body proportions of that drawing really bug me though. His left arm is about a foot longer than the right. C'mon, Jack!
