Black Magic #1 (1950). The cover shows a man about to throw a doll into a furnace. His child and wife are begging him not to and she says "you can't blame our tragedies on the baby's doll!" He tells her "it's a thing of malice and evil, I tell you! The boy says it talks to him--plots to destroy us! And I believe him! Now I'm going to give it back to the claims where I think it was made!"

Young Romance #7 (1948). On the cover, a man and a woman are partially embracing while looking at each other. Behind them, we can see people getting off a plane. She says
"Oh, I thought you were Fred! We war brides have never seen our men out of uniform--and it's been so long since I've seen Fred--but who are you?" He responds "I'm the man who fell in love with your snapshot! Fred showed it to me when we were buddies in France! Now, brace yourself for what I must tell you about Fred!"

Cover by Jack Kirby. #JackKirbyMonth

Stuntman #2 (1946). The covers to this series were designed to look like a thick book turned slightly to the side so you can see both the cover and the spine of the book. The portion meant to look like the spine of a book has an image of Stuntman with the words "By Simon and Kirby" beneath. The portion meant to be the cover shows Stuntman jumping from the back of a motorcycle to what looks like a racing car with two men inside. One of them appears to be holding a woman captive and this is all taking place in a tunnel.

The book "Sky Masters of the Space Force - The Complete Sunday Strips in Color by Jack Kirby and Wally Wood." Drawn by Kirby with inks by Wood, and written by brothers Dick & Dave Wood (no relation to Wally). The top of the cover is a close up of an astronaut's face, then it's the title, and the bottom is an alien landscape with a rocket ship landed in the middle & several astronauts walking on the surface.

Fantastic Four Annual #1 is my favorite annual ever. I love how Jack Kirby portrayed Atlantis and Namor's invasion of New York. #JackKirbyMonth

Fantastic Four Annual #1 (1962), which features the FF versus Namor the Sub-Mariner. The cover shows Namor on his throne with the FF held in a clear prison. It also teases an appearance by Spider-Man and a Gallery of Villains.

Headline Comics #29 (1948). The cover shows a man and woman in a diner pointing their guns at two people. The woman is pointing hers at the cashier, who has his hands up, while the man is pointing his at another man cowering in the floor. The man on the floor asks why they want to shoot him since he doesn't know them. The man with the gun explains that they're hired killers and "in our business, we don't make lasting friendships." The woman tells her companion to hurry up because "we don't get paid for overtime!"
