Before becoming a comic creator, Jack Kirby was a shop teacher.

He was forced to retire because his students projects kept attracting the hounds of tindalos.

Looking at that machine again, I'm starting to wonder what a Jack Kirby Windows desktop would look like.

I think McCloud used part of this image in Understanding Comics.

So Darkseid resurrects Desaad by urinating on the floor? "ZIP!", indeed.
