63. Ditkonomics

from Midnight Grappler Animals

Every artist's gotta make a choice in life: Starve or create a C-list Superhero for a publisher that'll go forgotten for decades until someone like Tom King remembers they exist. Steve Ditko went somewhere in-between. We look at four more books from Steve Ditko's oeuvre, this time spanning 40 years of his career! We start at the very beginning with his first published work, then go all the way near the end with one of the most delirious Steve Ditko books we've ever read (and we already read Mr. A for the first part of this series!). Join us as we look at a man consigned to comics for decades, whether he wanted it or not, and figure out what it means to ball on a comic artist's dollar. Looking for show notes?
