SPOOKY WORLD asbstract comic: This a sampling of the abstract comic that I just finished for the BLACK KIRBY exhibition. The images are remixes of my own work with Kirby’s and the quotes are from RHYTHM SCIENCE by DJ SPOOKY. The title SPOOKY WORLD is a reference to SPIRIT WORLD..a short lived supernatural anthology zine that Kirby did for DC Comics.

And this information tasted like all the strawberries in the world. Wow. Ok, bad news (an entire life lived in mounting despair) outweighs the good news (a fucking mindblowing afrofuturist remix abstraction of what it is to experience comics and culture), but at least it’s not all bad news! 

jijennin70: Gil Scott Herron as MISTER MIRACLE…super escapist character from Jack Kirby’s FOURTH WORLD saga. WHAT Black Kirby keeps delivering the hits! Shit!

jijennin70: BLACK KIRBIED version of BLACK BOLT king of THE INHUMANS. I am seriously losing my shit over how amazing this all looks. If anyone is anywhere near Jackson State University for this exhibit, you should absolutely go. If you live in Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana or Arkansas, you’ve basically got no excuse not to catch a bus or two and check it out. Black Kirby is opening in September, so you got time to save up to go too. No excuse!

jijennin70: Jill Scott as a combination of Big Barda and Mister Miracle (aka Scott Free) son of Darkseid wielder of the Alpha Effect. Oh man, Gill Scott Free and Jill Scott Free. Black Kirby is the best.

September 13, 2012, I will wish I was down South instead of up North. As the poster says, they not just conscious…they double conscious! And that’s the kind of art to get out and go see. Black Kirby’s remix already looks not-to-be-missed.

jijennin70: Very close to finishing the work for this first BLACK KIRBY exhibition! Here’s another collaboration with Stacey Robinson aka BLACKSTAR! Nature Boy is our remix of Kamandi: Last Boy on Earth. Nature Boy is also the title of a classic Sun-Ra cut. “I WANT MY DADDY’S RECORDS!!” That purple energy beard is amazing.

jijennin70: OK. THIS really is the last BLACK KIRBY image that I am doing for this first exhibition of our work. This piece is called “SUN WOMAN” it’s in collaboration with the super-gifted Stacey Robinson and it’s dedicated to the sisters in speculative fiction who have taught us how to dream of alternative modes of expressions for people of color. We thank you.
