It's the ultimate origin story! That of Jack "KING of Comics" Kirby. King Kirby follows him from the tough Jewish ghetto of Hell’s Kitchen in New York, to the harrowing battlefields of Normandy during WWII, to tense Senate hearings in the 1950s. Watch as he creates some of the most iconic heroes in pop culture: Captain America, Thor, the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Iron Man, the New Gods, and countless others. Take his hero's journey as Kirby pours his quintessentially Twentieth Century life into his comics, only to make a fateful mistake that sends him into obscurity while his creations become among the most recognizable in the world.
