The Ditko Estate governed by Steve's brother Patrick is launching a lawsuit to claim the whole nine yards - Spider-Man and Doctor Strange.

10 years ago the Kirby Estate did a similar deal so maybe the hope is for a similar settlement or deal but this could be fascinating and interesting.

All I say is and I mean this sincerely, "Sue 'em for all they got".

And let me say that if this deal leads to the Ditko Estate getting sole custody of Spider-Man and Doctor Strange, if that means no more comics/movies/games with Spider-Man and so on, if it means the Ditko Estate put out cease and desist on stuff like my articles online for their use of panels and so on...if it leads to all that, let me say and I mean it sincerely, "Sue 'em for all they got".

The next Spider-Man run, or the Next PS5 game or whatever, or, to speak something close to my heart, the Spider-Man story undoing OMD isn't worth the saga of exploitation that is on the spine of the comics industry.
