    Default Steve Ditko has died at 90 years old

    Hey everyone,

    Steve Ditko, co-creator of the Amazing Spider-Man, Doctor Stephen Strange, Blue Beetle, the Question, and Squirrel Girl has just died. He was 90, and Marvel will be sure to commemorate him in some way.

    I thought that we could take this time to remember the stories that made us look up to Steve, and say which ones made the most impact on us. It can be any Ditko story, whether Spidey, Strange, or even his DC work, but what was the story that made you admire him?

    For me, Ditko solidified his place in my Spider-Man memory with ASM Annual #1. That was 72 pages of action, heart, drama, classic Spidey villains, and amazing artwork. It truly made me value Ditko and his contributions to the mythos.

    Thanks in advance for this guys.

    I think I'm gonna be sick. This is hitting me pretty hard for some reason. Rest in Peace... I don't know what else to say.

    Rest in Peace and thank you for everything, Mr. Ditko.

    I didn't really know much about the man until I saw this brilliant documentary. Highly recommended if you're looking for insight on the talented individual that gave us the world's greatest superhero.

    How sad, a true legend has departed this world. My thoughts are with his friends and family.
