Kirby's solo work sold well.

The half baked argument is that [Kirby etc.] did not have successful characters on their own.

Except that it isn't true. Time has shown that just about all the characters Kirby created in the '70s have been reprinted over and over again. And the sales record shows that in their day the books were popular. Even with them being victimized by Affidavit Fraud. Robin Snyder mentioned this just the other day.

Robin Snyder: "This reminds me of a question or two about Kirby reprints. Since so many agree that Kirby was a poor writer and his artwork was not as good as they would have liked, why are the reprint books priced out of this world? Why aren't fans and dealers giving away, throwing away, The Demon, Captain America, Jimmy Olsen, The Eternals, Black Panther and others?"
