SHOW SYNOPSIS:
Marvelites unite! Peel back the comic strip and discover the true origin story of your favorite superheroes. This is the epic tale of Jack Kirby, the most famous cartoonist you never heard of.
Join Kirby as he survives the Lower East Side slums, lands in Normandy in WWII, creates CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE AVENGERS, and THE X-MEN, and then must fight for the rightful recognition he was denied. This masterful story crackles with wit and effervescent dialogue, and then sneaks in that emotional gut punch when you're least expecting. POW! BAM! KABOOM!
