My first was probably some issue of Devil Dinosaur. A trippy experience for my six year-old mind.

It's interesting how many of you were introduced to Kirby thru the Seventies reprint titles. I used those as temporary place-holders as I filled in my collection with trips to local secondhand book stores.Ah, happy days!

Difficult to recall. Could have been FF # 1. Or, as JB said, the monster/sf anthologies.
But what I do remember is that Kirby's art was like an explosion when compared to DC's "house style" (don't get me wrong, I liked their style! ... but Kirby ... just wow!)

Kirby was very rough and tumble compared to the usual DC fare. When Marvel really started to take off, in the Sixties, old hands at DC shook their heads and said it must be due to the "bad art".No, really.

I think it would have been a reprint of Captain America #100 in a Marvel Comics Annual published by World Distributers in the days before Marvel UK.

I have often remarked that I didn't "get" Kirby art until I was much, much older. Yet something must have attracted me to those DC titles I tried out as a preteen.
In those days it was all about the art, and those covers drew me to them. Justice Inc., Sandman, 1st Issue Special, Kamandi... I guess my subconscious new good art before I realized it!

I don't know which one, but it was definitely a Marvel's Greatest Comic reprint of the FF that was my first exposure to Kirby. Issue #67 seems familiar, but I can't be sure. That was the second issue of a great Dr. Doom story.
