True Story (I Swear…)

This afternoon, I was in a Costco in Tustin, which is a city about ten minutes south of Disneyland. Don't ask why I was in a Costco in Tustin. I just was.

Among my purchases was a new CD-Rom that Marvel has issued that reproduces about 100 key issues from the sixties. I'll review it later here when I get around to opening the box.

But I wanted to report what happened as I was going through check-out. A Hispanic gent who was perhaps 35 years of age was packing my items and when he came to the Marvel CD-Rom, he studied it for a second, front and back, then said to me, "These comics are mostly by Jack Kirby. Greatest comic artist who ever lived but he got screwed."
