I have no intention of letting it affect my appreciation for Kirby's talent. I'm merely observing that Kirby seemed to keep bouncing back and forth between DC and Marvel every few years, each time claiming the other company had ripped him off.

There's that old saying "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me." It would seem to apply here.

Alternatively, you begin to wonder if, maybe, Kirby was a little quick to claim he was ripped off.
