One wonders if Futurama was a fan of these panels.... BTW thanks for adding my blog to your bloglist! Daily Kirby was on my list from Day One - it's truly an inspiration - Long Live the King!
There's a good reason for this. Kirby is telling us that pure intellect without heart has no morality...no emotion to temper it and keep it from pursuing it's own agenda to evil ends. Look at how many oversized heads he populated his comics with... Gremlin, Gargolye, Watcher, The Leader, Modok, Kurgo, Ovids, Ego, The Red Skull, the Sleepers, the Unimind... the list goes on and on...
