This portrait of the enigmatic Metron is one of Jack "King" Kirby's most fascinating and compelling images as he prepared his "Fourth World". Metron is the character who exists between the nobility of New Genesis and the depravity of Apokolips, he sets himself apart and tries to uncover the secrets of the universe. His quest is ultimately futile as we learn eventually all gods and men must choose.

Wow! That's my new favorite Kirby pin-up. And there are a lot of great ones to choose from!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beauty alright. I think it might be the first of the Fourth World images.
