So....Last nights revisionist history on AMC

[Rosebunse]

Ditko is still alive ! 90 years and three weeks old. And he's still working : this fall the brand new Ditko's 32 pages #26.

But not giving any interviews, of course. It's admirable that Ditko has always wanted to let his work speak for itself but that also leads to his importance to Marvel and the industry as a whole not being as widely known as it should be.

I feel like such a noob! I really thought he was dead!

But yes, by not telling his side of the story, he really is letting other people dictate how his part of the Marvel story is interpreted. Honestly, I think it would do us all some good if we got some thoughts from him more. Maybe it would help comics as an industry avoid certain mistakes? Maybe it would just be nice to know what the hell happened? Because again, the fallout between him, Kirby, and Stan Lee and Marvel has had industry wide consequences that continue to be felt. Some of those were positive, like creators having a bigger piece of the pie. Others, like the 90s, weren't.

As they pointed out in the show, it seems like it was mostly that weird Marvel cartoon that made Kirby realize he was getting screwed. He really should have been getting more money at that point.

Probably after negotiations why he walked away from Marvel in the Silver Age first time.
