    As if the high-top perspective wasn't complicated enough, Kirby decides to draw it as the cover of a tilted book.

    How Can YOU beat an actual cover of JACK KIRBY!!!!!! It falls within the rules, it's technically a Jack Kirby cover

    I'm good with it Blastaar.

    No doubt that is Simon as the unseen cop.

    I've always loved that Headline cover. Sure it doesn't exactly fit the criteria of being "by Kirby" as outlined in the original OP

    ...but it's still an effin' great cover. And yes that is Joe Simon (and not, as some jokers have said over the years, the similarly tall 'n' lanky Stan Lee )
