Joe Sinnott will always be one of my favorite Kirby inkers, you can probably count the number of inkers on one hand who really did justice to Kirby's art and concepts.
Joe always inked Kirby the best. His bold, firm style enhanced Kirby's kinetics and energy.
This man is as much responsible for the success of the FF as Kirby. He gave Kirby's art the detail and finesse that it deserved. Other inkers filled in from time to time but I remember Frank Giocia just didn't do the book justice. Hats off to Joe!
I love Joe Sinott, but he didn't start doing the Fantastic Four regularly untill issue 44. I think that you sell Jack Kirby short.
@@bobfitzgerald8887 He doesn't. The art on FF was meh until Sinnott joined the team.
@@lyndoncmp5751 yeah Vince colletta was the inker and he made eyes look like dolls and the technology from the legendary Kirby pencils were omitted
Did you not read FF #36 through 43? And who do you think carried Marvel through the silver age? Jack Kirby's work improved in the later 1960's because his volume of books per month dropped significantly and he could take more time on each page. Don't get me wrong, I think that Joe Sinnott is the greatest inker in comic history and the team of Kirby/Sinnott produced the best comics in history. I have most of them. Sinnott said that he was amazed at the work that would come in the mail and couldn't wait for each installment. Sinnott also said that some days he would lose money inking Kirby's art because the detail consumed so much time. Unlike Vince Coletta, who would erase parts of Kirby's work rather than take the time to ink it, Sinnott was dedicated.
Jack Kirby also wrote most of the books and Stan Lee would come in and add a "Thee" and "Thou" to perk it up. The "Thee,s" and "Thou's" did add to the stories, but the great ideas of the silver age that made Marvel great were all out Kirby's mind and that made The Fantastic Four "The World's Greatest Comic Magazine".

This man made comic book art look like HD on the page. Best inker ever. And he's still around. 90!!
The best FF inker ever, hands down, no one compares.
My second favorite inker on Kirby.
1 - Mike Royer
2 - Joe Sinnott
3 - Wally Wood
In that order, or reverse?
No Vinnie?😂
He's still and will always be the best inker in comics!
Scott Williams: Am I a joke to you ?
One of my favorite inkers of ALL!
Well, chalk one up for Stan for making that classic collaboration happen!
Joe's jnks are incredible. When I was a kid, it seemed like I saw his name everywhere. He must have been really prolific. I would love to own a page inked by Joe.
Jack's absolute hands down VERY best inker. I LOVE this man's work. God Bless the GREAT and UNSUNG Joe Sinnott.
For someone his age, at this time, he's sharp and has good memory.
Joe Sinnott was a great inker (or embellisher as he's credited in FF) for not only Kirby but also George Perez's run on the Fantastic Four.
R.I.P. Big Joe....thank you for inspiring me to become an Inker!
Jolt'en Joe
Wow! That's so incredibly hard to believe!
RIP, Joe. Thank you.
I absolutely love Mr. Sinnott's inking of Kirby, but Mike Royer is my absolute favorite Kirby inker!
thumbsaloft yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees yes yes yes!!!!!!! Fantastic !!!!!!!!
Agreed 100% But, not by much TBH.
Nah, Sinnott all the way.
@@lyndoncmp5751, You like Sinnott that's great, but no inker was more loyal to Kirby's pencils than Mike Royer! He made sure as much of Kirby's style came through as possible!
@@thumbsaloft Just look at FF. The art was meh until Sinnott joined and then it was a quantum leap.
So much Kirby art was diminished by hacks like Colletta. We owe this guy appreciation for preserving some essential Kirby line work.
incredible!
I wish they had let him pencil and ink a Fantastic Four story. I think it might have been good.
Joe penciled and I think inked a few Journey Into Mystery Thor stories.
I've read that Kirby really appreciated the thought and care Sinnott put into translating what Kirby did in his pencils into the inked page. Kirby used the shading potential the penciled page to create a presentation that differed from what the published, inked pages entailed. The difference was less with Sinnott. I suspect Murphy Anderson might have done the same thing at DC, had he not had the task or correcting Kirby's Superman and Jimmy Olson to bring them "on model."
Wally Wood had a similar role on the Sky Masters newspaper strip and on the Challengers of teh Unknown (andsome covers at Marve lin 1964 & '65). George Klein did a bit of that on Challengers, FF #1 and (late in the game) on Thor.
Beleave that story was pilador the plunderer,about a space plot who turns out to be a robot.

Vince Coletta disliked this video.
Ha! Probably!
But remember, Joe Sinnott (bless him) didn't ink with a hairy scratcher in one hand and a big eraser in the other!
@@michaelbrittain7445 Yeah!
Vince Coletta was the inker who ruined most of Jack Kirby's art.
I hope his family got a nice check from Marvel's Movie.
why isn't he wearing a hat!
so Joe Sinnott wasn't a fake company ghost artist name at Marvel after all -- you know, like Murphy Anderson at DC?
Would you mind explaining that? About Murphy Anderson, I mean. Anderson's work is virtually impossible to not recognize.
It was Sinnott taking over the inking is what made that run. Before Sinnott joined the FF the art was meh. Sinnott was the catalyst for the quantum leap.
