Before delving any further into the GCD, I would just like to announce that if this isn't '70s Kirby, I don't want to live anymore.
The (apparent) fact that it isn't from 2001 or The Eternals already has me pretty damned morose.
Don't make me morose.

I tend to split superhero comics fans into "People who like Krypto" and "People who don't like Krypto."
Basically, if you miss the wonder of a dog flying around in a little Superman cape, you're in the wrong hobby.

Kirby Krackles for sure...and a bit of Kirby machinery, or close facsimiles thereof. I scanned FF and Thor for this, but wonder if it isn't a deliberate bit of obfuscation. Frenz and Giffen, to name just two, did a very passable KK...

Actually, if I were to just see that panel out of context, I'd assume it was from Image's current Godland -- Tom Scioli does a hellacious Kozmic Kirby.

As I've mentioned elsewhere, I love Giffen's Kirby-channeling stuff from those days, especially as seen in The Defenders, whereas the art he's turned out since he decided to appropriate Argentina's Jose Munoz's style wholesale* has been ... not particularly appealing.

and much as I hate to admit that I recognised the High Evolutionary's shoulder, I did so it was relatively easy to pin it down (the answer, not the shoulder)
so that is X-Men Annual 12 from 1988 and that was Art Adams doing the Kirby Krackles, much to my surpriseNothing to see here folks, go home
