Recently Read: Monster Masterworks
All Kirby and Ditko stories in this one. Every "trick" and trope Kirby used in the glorious '70s is all here in more simplified form. There are different levels at which this work can be enjoyed; for me it was studying the art. I wish I could say the repetitive Stan Lee stories were at the same level.
It would have been nice to see some Kirby and/or Ditko art on the cover and most of these stories seem reprinted from their early '70s reincarnations (themselves reprints). Still, Jack Kirby wrote a new essay for this book in 1989 so, for Kirby completists, this is one to grab.
