AF #15 in LOC

Something I meant to mention months ago is the anonymous donation to the Library of Congress of the original art to the 1962 comic book Amazing Fantasy #15. That particular issue includes the first appearance of Spider-Man, by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko.

And a few months ago a new book about Ditko came out from Fantagraphics, the outfit that is handling The Complete Peanuts. (Here’s the set I’m hoping to get from Santa this year.) STRANGE AND STRANGER The World of Steve Ditko, by Blake Bell, rated a review in the New York Times.

In Google Search of Steve Ditko

How hard is it to find Steve Ditko? Not very.

Ditko: “So it was all worthwhile?”
Ross: “Yes, Steve, it was all worthwhile.”

In Search of Steve Ditko - Part 6

Hmm. This is interesting. While explaining his position on who did what in the creation of Spider-Man, Stan Lee actually looks like a Ditko character!

In Search of Steve Ditko - Part 5

This part of the documentary covers Ditko after he left Marvel. I really liked a lot of his stories for ultra-cheapie publisher Charlton, in Derby, CT. They were reminiscent of his mystery stories at Marvel before the return of super-hero comics in ‘61-’62.
