" whew.. finally finished #5! Universally Unknown is not linked to from his comicvine page, I had to read his bio on wikipedia to get it... here's a small hint for you: the answer is a "concept", not a character, team or volume "
actually a big help, thanks. It was LOT wider a guess thinking character. Now if I could find these blasted ushers, clearly not as obvious as one would think "
how does this help looking @ the pge n nothing is popping out lol
" @tonis: One is named after a Greek Titan (use the search bar because the link on the Marvel page is incorrect.). Another is alway "on time" and the final is...well, Marvelous! As for the issue, it's the first ever for one of comics most famous superhero quartets. ; ) "
@Riezner: although this was one of the most brain busting and slickly tricky quests you guys have made it was also one of the most informative and enjoyable. You picked a wonderful and talented subject to quest out on. Great Job :)
I am stuck on the wartime one for A-Changin' and the two non bull Crashers, Any hints to help me out? I've searched what I thought was obvious but clearly they were not.
Comic Crasher: These are all issues Jack Kirby *the character* appeared in, when he worked for Marvel. You have to go to the specific issue. - An issue where one muses what would happen if the Marvel Bullpen turned into the FF - An issue where the FF's greatest foe returns - An issue where the FF celebrate wedded bliss - An issue where the FF goes psycho!
Marvelous Ushers: The three names the company now known as Marvel once had, and the first superhero comic Kirby did: - This issue is definitely not the first appearance of the Beatles. Try another fab four. - This company held the whole world in its hands - This company is, well, not DC. It's the other one. You know... - You don't need a rolex to know how appropriate this company is
Universally Unknown - Pretty much the only "failed" concept released by the King. Books include a hell's half-dozen and the youthful agents
The Times They Are A-Changin': Pretty self-explanatory; Kirby's last Cap comic, and his first non-hero comic. The last Cap comic involves Dr. Agony; and his first non-hero comic may be appropriate for, say, Superboy and Wonder Girl.
HINTS PLEASE!! This one is just too hard, I've searched his page wiki and everything I hit come up with nothing. I only have Ushers and the romance one for Times.
@jrh7925: Those might be helpful to some but for people like me who know zip about the FF and don't read or know the history of the Captain they are just as much a head scratcher as this quest is. One of those people you mentioned doesn't even come up on the search bar, unless I'm doing something wrong. :-/
Not nearing completion but one of the clues is that it isn't KIrby Dots. Concept with a similar name, perhaps. Universally Unknown. Has plenty of "character".
Why are there no DC related works from Kirby, like the New Gods or The Demon! That is offensive. After I was done I realized this is pro marvel... Heck Topps comics gets more love then Kamandi does...lol
