    He was the king of dynamic foreshortening.

  2. Jonathan C. Hohensee   19 years ago

    I don't think I've ever seen anyone pose like that in real life.

  3. Juan Arteaga   19 years ago

    Speaking of Kirby dots and Machine Organisms designed only for Killing, would Mister Miracle be the ultimate Libertarian?

  4. Jeff P.   19 years ago

    Jonathan: I pose like that all the time.
    I also strike an akimbo pose when entering a room.
    When introduced to people, I usually say "Lo, for I am known to men as JEFF!"

    Hey, this Kirby page starts off with a character who makes Jane Fonda look like a cookie-baking house frau! She should totally lead the class!

    Jazz hands? Somehow I think Ditko fingers would fit better. Thwipt!
