The Four Color Media Monitor

The Clare Echo interviewed artist and writer Shalvey, who originally came from around Ireland and of recent is working for Marvel, and he told something about artist recognition that raises eyebrows:

Declan has been working with Marvel for ten years now. Initially an illustrator, he has since moved on to write for other artists, enjoying the collaborative process that playing both artist and writer involves. Writers get much more recognition that artists, Declan posits. Everyone knows who Stan Lee is. Nobody knows who Jack Kirby is. He co-created Captain America, Fantastic Four, and X-Men. Writers could spend a week on a script and then move on to promotion work whilst an artist could be inside, working on the same project for over a month and a half. It’s difficult to build up a bibliography, he admits. Declan decided to move into writing and a deeper collaborative space when he realised that he wanted to build more stories than he was physically able to draw.

If no one knows who King Kirby was, we have the Orwellian ingrate establishment to blame. The same one who simultaneously obsess themselves with turning Captain America into an ultra-leftist mouthpiece, a Hydra-Nazi collaborator, not to mention a whole Blame America propaganda vehicle, as has been going on for nearly 2 decades now. Something Shalvey doesn't seem particularly concerned about either, and recalling he was one of several creators who threw Dynamite under the bus because they wanted to use a Comicsgate supporters illustration for Red Sonja/Vampirella, he's not making things any better if he wants a situation where you won't be known because of your politics and what movements you back. So what's his overall point about Kirby then? Mainly because nobody knows who Cap co-creator Joe Simon was either, or that he was a right-winger himself.
