Biographie de l'auteur :

Joe Simon and Jack Kirby created one of the most enduring American heroes in 1940 with the first issue of Captain America Comics from Timely Comics — the company that became Marvel Comics. Simon proved to be a brilliant editor, writer, penciller, inker, and businessman, serving as an editor for Archie, Harvey, Fox, Crestwood, and Mainline Publications — Simon and Kirby’s own company.

Jack Kirby is perhaps the most important artist ever to have worked in superhero comics. A creative and design genius, the “King” co-created household names such as The Incredible Hulk, the Fantastic Four and the X-Men for Marvel Comics, later moving  to DC where he wrote Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen, the epic saga of the New Gods, Kamandi — Last Boy on Earth and OMAC.
