Stan Lee gave him plenty of credit for creating Spider-Man but Ditko was just a whiny baby saying he didn't get any credit. I like Steve Ditkos take on Spider-Man but my absolute favorite Spider-Man Comic Artist is John Romita Sr
I think that the understanding of how key Ditko's input was is growing. You have to overcome a half century of Stan showboating first. I think the interview I included in the video sums it up nicely.
it was a stan and steve joint right from the start. it even says so on the first page of amazing fantasy 15. so i dont really know what steve is bitching about all this time, its not like a bob kane/bill finger type of dilemma wherein bill finger didnt really get any credit. but thats not to say that steve single-handedly developed spider-man into the character we know and love today. developing and creating are two very different things to me
@@carlramos9445 fair point. And you bring up an excellent point about Bob Kane fully stealing credit for many other people’s work - particularly Finger. Where Ditko’s (and Kirby’s ) beef was with not being properly compensated for the work done and for the boisterous way Stan took the lion’s share of credit
It still bothers me that the blue back logo is always excluded on these figures. It’s such a unique part of the first appearance suit, and I really wish it was represented more!
Well the blue back logo was only in Amazing Fantasy No.15 after that Ditko swaped it for a red back logo in Amazing Spider-man No.1 and it's been red ever since
That's like giving credit only to your parents for everything you've done in your life. Of course you wouldn't exist if it wasn't for them, but not all of your accomplishments are thanks to them
I really started to understand when I attempted to copy some of his drawings and realized just how fluid and intricate they really were - a true master!
Stan always gave him enough credit, ditko earned enough credit for it officially. I don’t see that interview clip as Stan saying that he was the only creator, he just said that he came up with the idea of a Spider-Man. Spidey really was born from the mind of Stan Lee, ditko just helped making him a thing on paper.
I do completely understand your point and I can see how you could read the interview that way. But we are gonna agree to disagree on this one. Keep watching - more good stuff to come!
Steve Ditkohan thought his work had to speak for itself. I've known Steve Ditko's role in the birth of Spider-Man ever since I first read Spider-Man comics when I was six years old, in 1990.
Really a great video, it's pretty cool too see Ditko get some appreciation. I don't mean to be a smarty-pants, but the Spider-Man Classics sculpt without the bicep swivel is actually the first version, the one with the bicep swivel came out afterwards. There's actually two versions of the red and black Spider-Man, one with the swivel and one without it.
Thanks for catching that - I appreciate it. I have several more ideas for Ditko Spidey videos - sometimes I think I could do a whole channel just on Ditko's Spidey!
@@CarbonScoring from my reading, I have discovered that Kirby introduced a superhero called Spiderman to DC in the mid-50's. Original concept wasn't what they wanted. When Stan, Larry, Steve, and Jack were throwing around ideas - Jack re-introduced "Spiderman" but Stan and Steve made it a totally different character then Jack's and ran with theirs.
@@JayWoods483 the very minimal information Marion available on Jack’s Spider-Man concept is one of a traditional adult superhero with a cape and open topped face mask - pretty standard stuff - nothing at all like what eventually came out
I do feel from a pay standpoint that Ditko wasn't given enough, but at the end of the day Stan Lee came up with the idea and wrote the whole story. Ditko came up with the visual concept. It wasn't like the Batman controversy where Bill Finger wrote and developed Batman and Bob Kane stole it from him. Feel free to correct me if I have gotten the details incorrectly, but as far as I know from Stan Lee's interviews, he wrote the story first before giving the artists to bring it to life visually.
I wasn't there, so I can't say for sure. Stan was not afraid in interviews to overstate what he contributed. Most comic historians agree that Stan would usually come up with an idea - a one or two sentence pitch - then Kirby and Ditko would take it from there. So, it is true that the original "idea" would come from Stan, but much (if not most or all) of the stories came from the artists when using the "Marvel Method"
@@CarbonScoring From what I have read Martin Goodman and Marvel also somewhat screwed over Stan Lee and the artists. So possibly the way how Marvel treated its employees could have created some divisions between the writers and artists, but we will never know.
I was reading a bit about Stan...incredible that about age 19 or so..he was already 2nd in charge of the office and telling artists his ideas! Incredible they pumped out so many comics!
Stan Lee's impact does not need to be underestimated. I think many comic historians, however, have come to the conclusion that it does not need to be overstated either as that is unfair to Steve and Jack and the amazing visual artists involved!
8:30 Surprised you didn't mention the absence of shoulder cut on the 2nd figure. I have one that I bought mint in card that also doesn't have the shoulder articulation so I assume it's a running change.
All the figures look great, but I can't help but wish that at least one of them had the blue spider on the back from the original comic. That would make it perfect! All in all, great video and interesting figures!
Would be insane if Todd McFarlane did a Spiderman figure line based on his #300+ comics. This Ditko Spiderman looks cool...but hes too muscular. Ditko drew him thin and square looking which i actually like!
The Marvel Legends one might be too muscular, but Ditko's style did change as the book went on - I think the Mezco one is going to be my definitive Ditko Spidey!
I think what makes Stan's remarks even worse is the fact he initially went to Jack Kirby to design Spider-Man, and Kirby made a design more like Captain America, and gave Spider-Man a web gun instead of web shooters, which would mean web swinging was off the table. Imagine a world where Spider-Man couldn't web swing! Ditko made the web shooters and created Spider-Man's most iconic feat.
I appreciate your clear admiration for Ditko, but unfortunately I hate to be the one to break the news the whole web wrist thing isn’t something completely original to Spider-Man. There was an obscure character from the 40’s named the Spider-Queen with an extremely similar ability as 60’s *Spider-Man* .
Even though its based on the cartoon version, I'm really excited for the Amazing Friends 3-pack because its reuse of the first appearance Spider-Man but with classic color scheme makes it look like the most actual Ditko Spidey in Legends form
Great call! I have thought the exact same thing! The first appearance figure is fantastic, so having it in red and blue is going to be perfect - I thought about making a video where I recreate all the Ditko Spidey covers using that figure once it comes in...
The Toei Spider-Man with the glasses head from the 2020 retro/TAS Peter Parker can also pass off for an early Ditko Spider-Man. Specifically, issue 1 where he had a slight orange and purple tint to his otherwise red and blue costume. The big swirly logo really does it. A shame of the underneath soles and no web wings.
It would be awsome to start reading spider man comics from the very start till now .I'm glad you have the whole run of the spider man comics you can tell you really love them so their in good hands and not in some person who just buys them to try and make money on them
Hmm... I would argue that the characters personality is very much a product of Lee. I wholeheartedly believe that if Ditko was writing the dialogue, while looking... ahem, amazing...it would have a drastically different feel.
That is fair. It is clear to see that nothing Ditko produced alone, Kirby produced alone or Stan created without those two hold a candle to what they were able to do together
@@CarbonScoring. Absolutely. lightning in a bottle. Great retrospective, by the way. Spider-man classics is what ignited my passion for collecting figures and comics.
Someone commented on another video that my Saturday morning premieres were like getting up for cartoons when they were a kid - I think that is the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me!
The Marvel Universe 1:18 scale line made a ton of Spidey figures, but I was never happy with any of them, mostly because they just couldn't get the eyes right.
Very good video! I almost want some of those goodies myself, and frankly it always is a sort of odd thing between Lee and Ditko. Though for all it's worth, Ditko should definitely get his due for the design and so on, but not the personality on the character. The guy's objectivist leanings really would not have worked for the character in the slightest if something like his later work in Mr. A is concerned. Also good production values!
Gotta disagree with the creation controversy. When Ditko was granted writer privileges, he showed he really didn't understand who Peter Parker is and the morals of his character. Peter's whole story is about how great power comes with great responsibility. But Ditko completely forgot this lesson and had Peter acting like he did when he first got his powers. Ignoring problems that were inconvenient and trying to profit from being Spider-Man. That suggests to me Lee had more to do with Spider-Man as a character than Ditko did
I see where you are coming from - together they were greater than the sum of their individual parts. But I will scream from the rooftops until Ditko gets the credit he deserves
I massively idolised Stan Lee. But you're right. Steve Ditko should've been given more credit for designing and creating Spider Man. I still love Stan Lee tho. Creating Spider Man was a joint effort between the two.
Marvel isn't Marvel without Stan Lee (from a pop culture perspective)... but he isn't Stan "The Man" Lee without Steve Ditko and Jack Kirby (among many others), and they were most certainly not disposable cogs like he seemed to think, evident by their work after their departures from Marvel. However, there is something to be said about Ditko's philosophy of objectivism, which most definitely fueled the fire between the two (as opposed to Kirby, who didn't seem to hold AS much of a grudge against Lee as did Ditko). Not saying Ditko was wrong to feel what he felt (quite the opposite in fact), but it's still worth noting.
I think everything you said is totally fair. I’d add that all three men produced comics before and after their times working together - and while there was some good stuff, nothing compares to what they produced as Lee-Kirby and Lee-Ditko
9:03 he was still wearing black later on exept the suit eventually went through spiderman 2099 syndrome were the blue shading was mistaken my actual blue and eventually ghe artists forgot it was meant to be black.
Man l love the retro spidey figure. And l got so lucky the other day, ppl are selling him for $100! $200! I got him the other day for $50 loose with all the accessories! Been playing with him nonstop
Thats crazy! I got mine when it was brand new. Had no idea it would be in short supply. Its honest NOT that great to be honest. I had a McFarlane Spiderman figure that was better
@@robd1329 the secondary market prices for the retro Spidey are insane. I was at a show and you could buy both the original Spider-Man classics figures - red and blue and the black suit for what someone was selling the retro for!
Well thank you carbon I really appreciate the time and effort that is put into a comic and when I hear someone say something wrong I want correct them.
You might be intrested in a project I have in the works. I'm having the ditco suit professionally made and brought to life for a fan film. If you wanna chat you can brainstorm with me on ideas.
Have you ever did a review of the revoltech Spidey action figure and the 12ich Spidey action figure awesome and it really captures Steve ditkos art and I never seen this before is it a new 12ich action figure or is it from the 90s and early 2000s?
Hey, I’m a super big fan I literally watched all your vids and I really wanna get a good comic style Spidey fig brand new, but I don’t know which one to get, any ideas? My budget is $30
Stan lee completely made up spider-man and steve ditko brought him to the comic strips by drawing him. Simple as that. Idk why you would disagree with Stan lee on spider-man
Jesus loves y’all! God bless y’all! God loves you and is your protector and healer. Praise be to Jesus!!! “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1.
This is a bit off topic but Its weird that people give todd McFarlane the credit for adding a higher amount of webbing onto the costume, i do know that the McFarlane suit definitely has much more webbing than the ditko suit but it's weird that people forget this suit also had a huge amount of webbing on it.
Todd's look for Spider-Man was revolutionary - Spidey books were an after thought until he came on the title. But you are right - when you look back - it was all there with the Ditko run!
@@CarbonScoring ditko's art as well as todd's were not only revolutionary but also extremely beautiful to look at, two of my favorite spiderman artists along side jr junior.
I’ve always loved Steve Ditko’s version of Spider man it’s a shame that he was never given his due credit for co-creating him .
Stan Lee gave him plenty of credit for creating Spider-Man but Ditko was just a whiny baby saying he didn't get any credit. I like Steve Ditkos take on Spider-Man but my absolute favorite Spider-Man Comic Artist is John Romita Sr

You should be very, very excited then...
Oh, I am 😁
Steve Ditko was always one of my heroes, but without Stan- there IS no Marvel Comics. 'Nuff Said!
That's like giving credit only to your parents for everything you've done in your life. Of course you wouldn't exist if it wasn't for them, but not all of your accomplishments are thanks to them
The definitive Spider-Man suit. Web wings included.
Great video. It only been up until the past few years since I've truly come to appreciate Steve Ditko's Spider-Man artwork. Pure masterpiece.

I hear ya, but I've never found it to add that much to my posing
I just got the spider man classic series 2 figure from 2001 should I open it?
Are their any spider man action figures based on John Romita Sr’s art?
Quite a few actually - I plan on featuring several of those when I get around to Volume 2 of Spider-Man: Panels to Plastic!!!!
In the meantime, check out this video I did on Romita Sr's time on the title - you'll love it! th-cam.com/video/1WC0tEnaoaw/w-d-xo.html
I slept through the premiere so I missed it😥
No worries - it is always available here!
@@CarbonScoring yeah
Where's the Webpit and the blue spidey back logo?
Edit: i see some of them have the Webpit but where's the blue back logo?
Ditko always did the worst Spidey eyes
I'm just gonna have to disagree on that. Are you a McFarlane fan?
Great video sorry I was late to it
i wish i could afford mezco
Ditko created spiderman, that's all
You know I'm with you
like number 1000
How tall is it
They need the blue spider on the back
That would be THE most accurate!!!
give away when!!!11!111!11!!!1111
So stan Lee bad?
Well, he took credit for things he didn't do...
@@CarbonScoring stan Lee bad :(
Stan lee completely made up spider-man and steve ditko brought him to the comic strips by drawing him. Simple as that. Idk why you would disagree with Stan lee on spider-man
Ikr
Dikhao credit Spider-Man toys like action figures the comics are cool but movies and Spider-Man real life,$$$10 🔥📲😀🤯❤️💙🖤
Thanks for watching!
these all look nothing like ditkos art at all he was not drawn so skinny these all look like mcfarlene the eyes are so wrong
Ditko's Spidey did change over 38 issues and 2 annuals and you make a good point of how influenced by Ditko McFarlane was!
Jesus loves y’all! God bless y’all! God loves you and is your protector and healer. Praise be to Jesus!!! “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1.
This is a bit off topic but Its weird that people give todd McFarlane the credit for adding a higher amount of webbing onto the costume, i do know that the McFarlane suit definitely has much more webbing than the ditko suit but it's weird that people forget this suit also had a huge amount of webbing on it.
Todd's look for Spider-Man was revolutionary - Spidey books were an after thought until he came on the title. But you are right - when you look back - it was all there with the Ditko run!
@@CarbonScoring ditko's art as well as todd's were not only revolutionary but also extremely beautiful to look at, two of my favorite spiderman artists along side jr junior.
