Kirby also used the cover idea for one of Marvels monster books. What interests me is that this is an artists idea, not a writer. You can just seer him sitting at his easel, rubbing through a drawing and then thinking, ' Hmm.... there is an idea!'

But the story, ' The Great Stone Face' is really interesting. The idea of a tribe of Africans secretly using highly advanced technology became the basis of the 'Black Panther' for Marvel in Fantastic Four #52. Now I understand that someone just paid a record price for that comic gambling that when the film comes out ( and it looks good in the preview) interest in the character will skyrocket.
Which would mean that this book here may also increase in value.
But that's not all folks. What makes it more interesting is that the story also concerns a giant ancient astronaut who is living in a different time frame and may wake up some day. This idea Kirby used for the Eternals when he returned to Marvel.
Very interesting story.
