Ditko on DCBS!

Post by zack kruse »

I just wanted to make sure that I let everyone know that this month on the DCBS site we have 18 of Steve Ditko's self-published books listed.

It's no secret that I am a HUGE Ditko fan, so I am very, very excited about all of this.

It amazes me that the man still puts out new, original content, on a regular basis and I think this is a great opportunity for comic fans to get their hands on some really great stuff.

It's my sincere hope that lots of customers check out this stuff. Not only are you getting some great content from a great creator, but you're directly supporting him since these are self published titles that we are buying direct from him and Robin Snyder.

Where is the best place to find out more information about the items the DCBS has that aren't in Previews? Both the Steve Dikto material and the other publishers not carried by Previews?

I think Ditko's stuff was self-published in New York at Hanley's.

Not sure if this is what DCBS is referring to.

I reccomend two places.

One is Blake Bell's website. Blake is sort of Ditko's unofficial biographer as the writer of Strange and Stranger and is filled with great information: http://www.ditko.comics.org/

The other is Bob Heer's website. It's Bob's site and listings where I was able to obtain all of the item descriptions that are on the site: http://ditko.blogspot.com/1990/01/ditko ... print.html

There are some other really good fansites out there, but those to, IMHO, have the most and best information

Yes, Hanley's carries the same books we are listing.
