Steve Ditko spider-man artist died last week

dimanche 16 septembre 2018

He created the look and told the original tales of Spider-man way back in the 60s and he created Dr Strange too.

Died last week in his 90s - bit of a loner was not found for a couple of days after he died.

I came across the old Spidey stories in the British comic "Pow!" (later "Pow & Wham") when I was at primary school and was hooked - taking on CrimeMaster & The Green Goblin, The Scorpion, Doc Ock, Molten Man, Vulture, Mystery, Kraven the Hunter - it was all set in a strange 40s type New York and Spidey quipped his way through all his fights. And in the same comics you'd get British comic strips like The Two Faces of Janus

Long time ago but Ditko's work still sets the benchmark for Spider-man.
