Jack Kirby was the comic king.

Yes, it was Stan The Man and Jack "King" Kirby.
Also, Jazzy John Romita, Big John Buscema, Roy "The Boy" Thomas, and Vince "Eraser" Colettta.
Well, not that last one, but if you've ever seen the befores and afters of pages he inked, you'll get it.

Coletta gets a bad rap for just doing the job that needed doing. He himself was a really accomplished inker, he taught Dick Giordano, but when other people didn't hit their deadlines , Colletta could get the book back on schedule. Often he had insanely short turnaround times. Corners were cut, quality was secondary, but the job got done. The Editors were happy. The Publisher was happy. Vinnie had a long and successful career as a fixer.
