Yeah, you are 'aloud' to believe that, but this is not a Kirby thing. FF isn't more engaging because Kirby was drawing it---it is more engaging because it's more engaging.

If Roth had drawn the concurrent FF issues as written and plotted and Kirby had drawn the X-Men issues in question as written and plotted---the FF would still be better and 'more engaging'.
The FF wouldn't have been as good. the X-Men wouldn't have been as bad, but the FF would still have been better.

I know it fun to bring the Kirby battle to every thread---but X-Men during those years is mostly bad because of the plots, the writing, the lame villains, the meandering storylines etc. Even Kirby would have failed making Mekano anything other than a crap character or Merlin---which DID suck when Kirby used him in Thor.
