I put Thor. The imagery of Asgard and how all the Asgaridans looked influenced comics immensely.

The Thing, because Ben Grimm is basically Jack Kirby himself.

I picked Mister Miracle -- him escaping from Armagetto was him escaping the New York ghettos, Scott's upbringing probably reflects Kirby's army experience, and of course, Big Barda is Roz.

The Fourth World is definitely the Definitive Kirby saga. Definitely.

Definitely. Definitely Definitive sounds like a future Oasis remaster.

The Thing. Ben Grimm is one of the richest and most original characters in comic book history. His tragedy, and his heroism despite it, is central to the Fantastic Four. Even better, he is fucking hilarious..
Ben can't always resist giving in to his misery, but he also won't let himself succumb completely or for long. Even at his most alienated, The Thing will always remember he's "the idol of millions" and when "it's clobbering time." The Thing will clobber.

For me, it's Mister Miracle... such a CRAZY design. It's screams "Kirby!" more loudly to me than any of the others.
