WI: Jack Kirby dies in WW2

What if Jack Kirby was killed in World War 2? How would Marvel and DC look in the 60s and beyond with no Stan Lee/Jack Kirby collaborations, let alone no New Gods at DC (therefore butterflying away Darkseid)?
 
His artistic style was pretty influential, so I'd have to say the impact is big. Just how big, IDK...

For myself, tho, I wouldn't miss his work at all. What I saw of his Cap (after his big "comeback"), I hated: hugely overinked & stiff... Maybe in his prime, he was better... (That said, a lot of pioneer artists, by modern standards, weren't really that good.)
