Jack Kirby...and Mr. T. Uh...

I was looking for examples of Jack Kirby artwork on Google, and this image to the left showed up relatively early.  I have no idea as to its authenticity - Kirby's style is not only awesome, it's also popular, so there are a number of artists who draw in homage to him - but even so, I love it.  I do agree with the caption that Mister T would be "the perfect bodyguard", but still, I'm struggling to wrap my head around this.  When is this from?  Is it actually Jack Kirby's work?  Why would "The King" draw...Mister T?  This is all so confusing.

I read that Kirby worked on the Mr T cartoon.
