MARVEL’S KIRBY MONSTERS REVIEW CONCLUDES WITH A SECOND MASSIVE MONSTERBUS!
Comicdom’s famous monsters are on the loose! Marvel presents the concluding volume in our complete collection of Stan Lee, Larry Lieber and Jack Kirby’s Marvel Monsters. Marvel’s late-1950s/early-1960s period was famous for its twist-ending tales, alien invaders, and especially for its towering monster menaces — and no one drew giant monsters like Jack “The King” Kirby! It’s page after page of Grogg, Ogg, the Creature from Krogarr, Fin Fang Foom, and many, many more! These stories aren’t just a fun atomic romp, they’re the training ground where Stan Lee and Jack Kirby honed their creative partnership, learning each other’s strengths, and building an unmatched rapport. In these pages, you’ll find out out that the mother of the Marvel Age of Comics was—a monster!
