ComicMix (Free subscription) | 09/11/2009
When you think of the classic Marvel artists, you think of masters of the medium such as Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, John Romita Sr, John Buscema, and Gene Colan.

The Bronze Age Of Blogs (Free subscription) | 03/11/2009
Ok, so I forgot Steve Ditko's birthday yesterday. Would'ja believe I was being deliberately obtuse and mysterious, in keeping with Shadowy Steve himself? No, huh? Well, anyway, as we know, after leaving Spidey, Dichotomous Ditko spent a lot of The Bronze Age producing work that got steadily stranger & stranger, from The Hawk & The Dove and The Creeper to Mr. A . This strip, from the 4th issue...

Marvel Comics on iPhone, Can DC Be Far Behind?
Mac|Life all RSS Feed (Free subscription) | 03/11/2009
While none of the offerings are currently the newest material in their catalog, Marvel Comics is partnering with some app developers for the iPhone to bring comics to the small screen.

Happy Birthday, Steve Ditko
Slog (Free subscription) | 02/11/2009
Steve Ditko turns 82 today . I don't mean to understate Jack Kirby's addition to the world of comics, but Ditko did more create the modern comic book than just about everybody.
