Thanks Frank ... maybe I'm alone in this, but I think the X-Men look better in Kirby's original black and white theme than what was actually published. Very primal!

Looks cool Frank. Might have to try going with more of a dark grey, instead of blue for the highlight on the black.

And having this stuff here might get me more back into making these than I have been lately.

nah, i like kirby's stuff a lot in black & white too - although i'm not really a huge kirby fan.

i thought about making the original templates "kirby-styled" and calling them "kirbees" but eventually we decided to go with the familiar micro-hero style.

here are the tuned-up kirby templates for any fans of the king who want to take a stab at making some.
