Orbit: Jack Kirby: co-creator of Captain America to X-Men

For comic book fans the world over, Jack Kirby was the king. Born Jacob Kurtzberg in 1917, TidalWave Comics is now celebrating his life with their latest bio-comic “Orbit: Jack Kirby.” This new bio comic will highlight how an artist helped change the face of comic books. For almost three decades, characters were trapped within each panel, but Kirby’s cinematic style broke the boundaries of the sequential boxes, as he would use the whole page as his canvas. This style of graphic story telling would turn a fledgling comic book company into one of the most powerful companies in the world.

As featured on CNN, Time Magazine, People Magazine, LA Times, Forbes, and MSNBC! Orbit is a comic book biography series that focuses on the people that have made a difference in the world! Read about the world of Jack Kirby in comic book form!
