The Shocker

Here are a few never-seen-before photos of The Assholes: Hole Invasion, a comic book by Shock G of Digital Underground.

Here, joining the chorus of the indifferent, is Kirby himself, from an interview in Comics Journal which ranged over his whole glorious career:

Interviewer: ‘It always seemed like your last stint at Marvel was a little half-hearted.’

Kirby: ‘Yeah.’”
