Like a number of fellow members in this board, I'm rereading the Lee/Ditko Spidey omnibus. Romita was always my favorite Spidey artist since it's his look what got me into the character. But it's undeniable how much concept, dynamism and sheer creativity Ditko brought to the table. In his run, you find all of the basic Spider-Man mythos for the first time. All the classic villains appear within those first issues. Is it too wordy, or is the art too clunky? For audiences not used to the Silver Age charm, maybe. But it still holds up.

His work in Creepy or Eerie written by Archie Goodwin is my favorite by him on all levels, but as far as Marvel goes, in my opinion Amazing Spider-Man 31-33 is peak Steve Ditko, *SPOILER* the machinery lifting and the swinging arms after defeating Ock's henchmen sequences being my highlights.
