There are a number of great articles on\u00a0Steve Ditko<\/b>\u00a0that I\u2019ve been meaning to archive in some useful way. What better time than now.<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0The Avenging Page (In Excelsis Ditko)<\/a><\/b>\u00a0by Joe McCulloch (My personal favorite essay on Ditko by one of comics\u2019 best writers.)<\/p>\n

Recently, I was asked a few questions in regards to Steve Ditko over at\u00a0ComicBook.com<\/b><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0The Double Page Spread Podcast<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anyone who knows me even in passing knows the impact Steve Ditko made in my life. It’s been four months since he died, and it’s still an odd thing to process.<\/p>\n

I hope Steve Ditko was content in the end. He certainly worked hard for it.<\/p>\n
