If and when I write a forward for a DEMON collection, I will tell how Jack created that entire comic in—this is not an exaggeration, it’s what was happening at that moment—the time it takes to get a hot turkey sandwich at a Howard Johnson’s restaurant. Asked earlier that day to come up with a macabre hero, Jack went to dinner with his family and friends (I was a friend) and he ordered, then sat there very quietly at the table, figuring out all the essentials of his next comic while he waited for the waitress to deliver his meal.
Mark Evanier in the introduction to the collection of Jack Kirby’s OMAC.
