That Frank Miller picture is just creepy.
I think this is the first picture I've seen of Jack Kirby

Yeh, that's the first time I've seen Kirby too. Did you notice the sign behind Frank stating he would not draw any X-Men except for maybe Kitty Pryde? Hilarious!

Joe, it turns out you are right. Someone on the CGC forums posted this response by Ed Brubaker:

That’s actually John Byrne’s sign. I was standing about two feet from that scene, watching Frank Miller sketch, right then. Byrne’s sign said he didn’t want to draw any X-Men but Kitty (which you can see). The sign Frank Miller put up, after he looked at Byrne’s sign and smiled, said he would draw ANY X-Men, except for Kitty, and I think he even undercut John’s price, but I can’t be sure.
I remember that vividly, because John Byrne eventually noticed Frank’s sign and tore his own down and left. Not exactly in a huff, but not enjoying Miller’s joke.
It was weird how seeing all those pictures made me vividly remember that convention year. I was 16 that year, and it was my 9th Comic Con already.
