6. Stuff like "the anti-life equation" & "the motherbox" in the Justice League are just generic fantasy McGuffins (like the Infinity Stone in the MCU). But in context they referenced the politics of reactionary fear that Kirby thought thwarted human flourishing.

Interesting to look at the King/Gerads MISTER MIRACLE from this perspective.

Well said. Jack's work was so deep and rich, it still resonates all these years later.

So the Hunger Dogs graphic novel really never finished the saga? It has been years since I read it. And that was prior to DC ramping up Darkseid as a foil and part of a toy line. So, for the past decade or so I have tried to find the orig series to read in order, if possible

What gets me about the story is just the sheer creative output. The guy just made so much in what was a relatively short span of time. He sure as heck did more than those who mine the characters he made during the 1970s. And then there is the Jimmy Olson/ Superman entry pt angle

I always follow your Kirby threads, hoping one might change my poor opinion. Negatives: Slapdash anatomy, reliance on quality inkers like Joe Sinnott, boring big machines, flat women's faces, a druggy prose style, and not good druggy like PKD. Positive: Superb action scenes.
