Dojo Classics - Ikaris Falling!



Here's a clever re-imagination of the cover for the third issue of The Eternals by Jack Kirby and Frank Giacoia. This is the first cover which features Ikaris in his costumed glory and it immediately shows the Eternal hero stricken and falling from the sky, not unlike his infamous namesake from ancient Greek myth.


The cover for this issue of the French comic Strange by Jean Frisano lacks the raw power and drama of the Kirby original, but it does have some charms of its own. The effectiveness of "Kirby Krackle" is evident in the original. 


Rip Off
