Amazing Fantasy #15 original art
| May 23, 2008

Few artists have as much influence on my life and career as Steve Ditko and Jack Kirby. I came to comics a few years after their 1960s Marvel Comics heydays, and my favorite artists at the time were the next generation. But as I've gone back to comics the past few years--and the classic "Silver Age" comics are available in classy and affordable reprints--I've really been enjoying the genius of Ditko and Kirby. News last month of Steve Ditko's original art to the first Spider-Man comic donated to the Library of Congress was astonishing: http://www.loc.gov/today/pr/2008/08-089.html
