RIP Steve Ditko

Another one that surprises me because I thought he was already long gone.

I was never a Ditko fan. In fact, while my best friend was all about the new Marvel Age I remained a tried and true DC fan, mainly because I thought Curt Swan's art was more "realistic". I didn't like Ditko's round faces and tons of teeth.

That was then. These days I can appreciate what I missed then, that he was one of the true great pioneers of comic art. That doesn't mean I've become a fan - I haven't. That said, I can still appreciate his contribution to the world of fantasy.
