Jack Kirby's transportation technology is interpreted across his decade-long tenure with Marvel's flagship title, The Fantastic Four, through the "cold war" lens of the United States' Space Race against its chief geo-political rival, the Soviet Union.

From canoe to ocean-liner, from elevator to matter-transmitter, from snow-ski to cosmic surfboard, this presentation celebrates the storyteller whose awe-inspiring vision of transportation technology informs comic art and popular culture to this day.
