TGS 208-Jack Kirby Xerox

Greg Theakston isn't just a run-of-the-mill Jack Kirby expert. Which is why it's so strange he's thinking of reporting The Jack Kirby Museum for stealing his property.

The noted illustrator, editor, publisher, and writer KNEW Jack Kirby. WELL. As Kirby's apprentice, peer, co-worker, and biographer. As you'll hear, Kirby and his wife wanted Greg to think of them like parents.

Now Greg is embroiled in a controversy--after loaning thousands and thousands of one of a kind Kirby artifacts to the museum. Because the museum now says over 3,000 rare original Kirby xeroxes (which can sell from between $30 to $150 apiece) are THEIRS.

Greg says he clearly always wanted them back.

We get to the bottom of it in this podcast. Enjoy the Theakston.
