Jack Kirby’s work space.
Absolutely my favorite and most inspiring image I’ve seen in a while.
I love how unpretentious and no-bullshit it is. It’s a plain desk, with a plain chair and a plain side chair, all of which are beat up from use and covered in ink. It faces a corner, one that’s covered in unorganized comics. It’s inspiring to see the desk that held the home of creation for countless characters was so practical. Nothing fancy about it. Just a place to sit down, shut up and do the work.

We talk about the plight of all ages books in the direct market, Marvel and their fill in artists, inappropriate panel questions, why celebrities are kept in a pen and Lauren being mistaken for another well known (albeit male) writer!
