Jack Kirby is responsible for so much amazing work, I don't think I can really say enough about him, but if you want a love letter to his work, Ultimates2 #100 does a pretty good job.

I took a break from Ultimates, but based on your recommendation, I will definitely pick up that issue.

On the subject of Kirby's 100th, I have really enjoyed the celebrations at both Marvel and DC.

For those who are unfamiliar, here are the ones to which I am referring:

DC Kirby One-Shots
- DC has picked a selection of their characters that were created by Jack Kirby and released a series of one-shot issues. Each of these had new stories by current writers and artists, with some reprinted Kirby material as a back-up. The tributes have really exuded appreciating for the King, and the reprint material seems to have been very well-chosen, especially the "Strange Stories of the D.N.A. Project in The Sandman one-shot.

Marvel Kirby One-Shots
- Marvel's one-shots feature no new material, but are inexpensive reprints of classic Kirby stories. At a glance, this may seem a little inadequate compared to the way DC did their tribute, but with such a huge quantity of work at Marvel, it seemed very cool to see nice reprints of Kirby's own work and let it speak for itself. I know I picked up a few of them I had never read before and was blown away all over again.

If you guys see any of these at your local comic shop, give them a try.
