These just arrived from eBay:
2 signed Kirby prints from cap's 50th anniversary (1990)...
Not originals, but I don't have anything signed by Jack, so now I do.
Not great drawings from Jack, but what ya gonna do? I got both for $84 (including shipping).

This is another that should be on it's way from eBay...
A 2008 Pat Broderick Batman. Take that, Ari!
Actually, what I really want is a Captain Atom, so if anyone knows where Pat is, let me know...

Pat will be at Mega Con in February/March, which I'm tentatively planning on attending. If I go, I'll let you know and I can try and get something for you from Pat.

John- I'm gonna do my best and see if I can track him down, but if I can't I'd
love some help on this!
Thanks!
Michael- It's a shame that the art on those prints is so bad. I know that it's
great that Jack was even able to create new art for these in 1990 with all of
his health/vision problems, and I hope they made him some money, but I
almost wish that they could've used some older art, or have someone else
ink/paint them (the color print is a painting). They do have a certain charm,
but come on, if you're gonna hang up a Kirby image on the wall, you're not
gonna hang up these. The B&W is fairly small, and has a nice charm to it, so I
might frame it. I have no idea what to do with the larger color print...

I'm a big Broderick fan, so I'm green with envy of that sketch.

I went to the Big Apple Con yesterday (I did not see Walt), and I finally met Fred Hembeck and bought his book.
He drew this inside:
