Shortly after Jack Kirby passed, a tribute was held at a convention in New York, there were two banners set up for artists and admirers to sign and give their respects to the undisputed King of comics. On this banner, over 50 artists and colleagues signed and sketched and otherwise memorialized their fallen hero. Artists who contributed sketches include Jim Lee (Magneto), Joe Madureira (Spider-Man), Alex Ross (The Thing), Joe Quesada (Batman), George Perez (The Thing), Adam Hughes (Sue Storm), Bernie Wrightson (Capt. Sternn), Stephen Platt (Moon Knight), John Romita (signature and inscription only), John Romita Jr. (Punisher), Rich Buckler (Deathlok), Ron Frenz (Thor), Tony Isabella (signature and inscription only), Brian Kong (Black Bolt), Steve Lieber (Captain America), Lee Weeks (Gambit), Dave Johnson, (?) Dan Panosian (?), Mike Grell (Green Arrow), Mike Wieringo (Darkseid), Buzz (?), Scott McDaniel (Daredevil), Dan Fraga (?), and many more. The banner is enormous, it measures 117" (almost 10 feet!) x 27". The banner has some overall wear, but is in very good condition all things considered.
