Recently Read: Hand of Fire: the Comics Art of Jack Kirby

Charles Hatfield's analysis of Kirby's working methods and the probable apogee of his career as a storyteller is scholarly, thought-provoking, well-researched and perhaps, in places, controversial.

I'm looking forward to finding the time to write and post some notes and thoughts about the book and asking Charles, who I had the pleasure of talking to at this year's Mix comics symposium at CCAD, some follow-up questions. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, consider purchasing and reading the book: http://handoffire.wordpress.com/hand-of-fire-the-narrative-art-of-jack-kirby/
