Steve Ditko




Ditko was the first comic artist i looked at. I like his work because he seems to be able to put a lot of emotion into his characters with using very simple technique. Also his work is not a riddle like i feel alot of art is, its to the point so instead of thinking what the artist is trying to tell you, you think about the information he has given you and you think about that. Ditko was a avid fan of Objectivist philosophy, and would try and get the viewer to think and dwell on that. He ended up losing his job on the spider man comics because of this.
