Steve Ditko 1927-2018

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/he...was-90-1125489

RIP Mr Ditko. Thanks for helping to bring one of the greatest fictional characters ever to life. He had a quirky style, to be sure, but it was always full of life. One of the pioneers of the Marvel Age of comics.

Sad to hear people passing away, especially talented ones. But he did live a good ripe old age at 90.

RIP

One of the handful of architects of modern comics. Loved his work!

Definitely one of the all time comic book greatest artists ever who clearly influenced countless of generations of artists who proceeded him

It is a shame that he did not give interviews because I am sure he would have had some very insightful things to say.

He was born in 1927 and Amazing Fantasy 15 was published in 1962. So he was about 35.
