For anyone who loves the art of Jack Kirby, this is a must have book. The art represents Kirby at (what I consider) his best, stylistically. In addition to the excellent pencilling, it seems possible that Kirby did the inking, as well. The artwork still seems fresh and contemporary. Given the context of knowledge about space at the time, the stories are also imaginative and enjoyable. Also interesting is that the story "Garden of Eden" is clearly is a forerunner of "Ego, The Living Planet", a concept that would appear much later in Kirby's work for Marvel.

Beautiful stuff! I don't know about Kirby being at his stylistic peak , but it sure is gorgeous. Great and clear scans, a must have.

The 2nd. story seems to me much better drawn than the 1st. And, I thought, shades of Challengers of The Unknown. The bottom right panel on p.5 is quite poor. However, as the story reaches a conclusion, Kirby almost outdoes himself, in the best possible Jesse Marsh way, by moving the eye from panel to panel, effortlessly.

This may be the first comic book that I ever read. I have remembered the cover ever since I was a kid. This Kirby art defined "outer space" for me. I am glad to see these issues available, as I wanted to see them again. Years ago I purchased a copy of #3, but that was long ago and long lost. Thanks for the upload.

I never tire of looking at this stuff. 2 points. Kirby was really going through a creative high at this point in his life. Here is yet another idea he re-used later. A living planet? Sound familiar. Second point. Look at the building on page 29. That tells me Kirby had the skills to be an architect. That is a very contemporary looking building for the period. He has obviously been looking at architectural drawing. Kirby always goes the extra mile.
