My favorite hollywood story I've ever heard is Don Rickles walks into this restaurant with this girl he's dating and he sees that Frank Sinatra is in the restaurant as well. So Don tells the girl he's going to the bathroom and he goes up to Sinatras table and says "hey Frank I'm here with this girl I really like and I want to impress her. Could you do me a favor? In about 5 minutes could you come up to my table and say hi to me so that she can see that we're friends?" So Frank says "yeah sure. No problem." So Don goes back to his table and about 5 minutes later Frank walks up to Don's table sticks his hand out for a hand shake and says "hey Don! It's good to see you! How have you been?" And Rickles looks at his hand and then looks up at Frank with this disgusted annoyed look on his face and says "come on Frank! What are you doing? We're trying to eat here! Can't you just leave us alone?!" And Frank Sinatra is stuck there with his hand out and all he can do is just pull his hand back and walk away embarrassed! Lmao it's my favorite story I've ever heard!

When it came to Kirby, there was a lot of "revenge" moves made on all sides. When Marvel got him back, I've heard they purposely tried to embarrass him and set him up for failure. It sounds to me that this issue of JO was Kirby's way of taking a slap at DC for how they'd tied his hands after hiring him.
