Part of the fun of this new #dailydoodle sketchbook if figuring out what should go on the facing page of a spread. Decided turning #berniesmittens into a pattern seemed like a perfect match. #berniesanders #thekingkirby #kingkirby #metron #mobiuschair #newgods #4thworld #cosmic #bernie #jackkirby #berniememes #poscapens #doodle #sketch #sketchbook #cartooning #cartoonist #illustration #illustrationartists #makingcomics #artdirection #illustratorsofinstagram (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKe-ZaUhTwc/?igshid=13ntc7dip047s

#HeroClix chase! #BatmanGodofKnowledge from #HarleyQuinnandtheGothamGirls, figure no. 062. Pulled him from (yet another) pack—I swear, I'm going to stop now! 😅 He's the only one of this set's #DarkseidWar chase theme figures that I'd want to keep, because he's the most different from the character's standard dial design. However, I figure I can translate him into the two super-rare Bombshells for whom I'm still looking, so he's going to be available at that link in my bio tomorrow night. All too soon...! #batman #brucewayne #mobiuschair #metron #newgods #godofknowledge #justiceleague #dccomics @wizkidsgames @necaofficial #clixstagram #tabletopgaming #tabletopgames #wizkidsgaming #wizkidsgames #weareheroclix #bricksnclix #toyphotography #photoygraphy #toycrewbuddies #macro #latergram

#JackedKirby - The Chair To Anywhere... There is no doubting the love I have for the 4th World series’s that Jack created at DC. They are full of tons of Kirby creativity that he let go all in one fell swoop. But I am constantly stunned by the amount of Full Page splashes he added throughout the issues. Even stuff that didn’t have an overwhelming bearing on the story... Jack still went all out and crated splashes for those as well. An excellent example of this comes in #Issue4 of the New God series, which was published in September of 1971. In the opening splash of this book we see Metron and a younger New God named Esak traveling through time and space to a planet of primitive cultures... cavemen and dinosaurs galore!!! This awesome splash shows them flying in the Mobius Chair being chased by two Tyrannosaurus Rex looking creatures... but the coolest part is this whole panel/page has NOTHING to do with the overall story of the issue at all! In this issue Orion uses an alternate identity to go undercover and infiltrate Inter Gang in The hope of discovering the whereabouts of the Deep Six... But Jack felt the incessant need to include this magnificent dinosaur splash with two additional characters unrelated to storyline just to do it. You gotta respect that... #JackKirby #KingKirby #Kirby #4thWorld #NewGods #Metron #MobiusChair #NewGenesis #TRex #KirbyDinosaurs #Dinosaurs #Cavemen #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #70sComics #ComicsOfThe70s #IGComicCommunity #ComicsOfIG #KirbySplashPage #SplashPage

#JackedKirby - Metron and The Möbius Chair!!!! Metron is one of Kirby's most interesting characters that he created for the 4th World. Although he is usually grouped with the New Gods (the good guys) as an enemy of Darkseid and his minions (the bad guys), that really isn't the case. Metron has no loyalty to New Genesis or Apokolips... he is a separate entity altogether that is on a never ending quest for knowledge and understanding. He is seeking out the "How's and Why's" of the universe... he can't be troubled with petty squabbles between wearing factions! Metron is usually seen traveling in his Möbius Chair. The flying throne can transcend time and space, basically transporting Metron anywhere in a moment. This ability makes Metron a very powerful character... but often his ambivalence keeps him out of all the frays that take place in the DC Universe until he is absolutely FORCED into action. Metron was loosely based on Leonard Nimoy's Spock character from Star Trek. Someone who favors knowledge and understanding over right and wrong... it's all about the analytical reasoning. This opening splash page is one of Kirby's signature photo collages and opens up #Issue5 of the New Gods series. It was published in November of 1971 and inked by longtime Kirby collaborator Mike Royer. I love the image Kirny portrays of Metron floating through space and time, using a full colored character over a black & white background. It conveys the idea of time travel to me. Also, note the font of the story title which is "Spawn". It looks an awful lot like the font that would be used by Todd McFarlane later on his long running Spawn comic series that first appeared in the 90s for Image. #JackKirby #Kirby #KingKirby #NewGods #Metron #MobiusChair #Apokolips #NewGenesis #Darkseid #Spock #StarTrek #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #ComicsOfIG #ComicsOnIG #igcomics #igcomicscommunity #IGComicCommunity #DCComics #70sComics #ComicsOfThe70s #MikeRoyer #4thWorld
