Steve Ditko is one of the most innovative and influential comic book artists of all time. He co-created The Amazing Spider-Man (Ditkos original and imaginative design for that character is an icon known world-wide) and worked on such well-known characters as The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man. His creative contributions to those characters during their early years helped secure their longevity and appeal over the decades.

Originally included in the graphic novel, Steve Ditkos Static, published by Robin Snyder and Steve Ditko in 1988, In Principle is chillingly more relevant today than it was when it was originally published.

Ping! ;)
As a conservative comic book fan, I just love Steve Ditko — he’s a classic, a great artist, and a moral thinker.
Thanks for this.
Ditko was always one of my favorites, and this one nails it.
Ditko is the man! I just finished reading a collection of his Mr. A stories - great stuff.
Ditko catches a lot of crap from lefty comic book creators for his adherence to Rand and objectivism.

Highly recommended links for Ditko fans.
Thanks for the ping! What could be more awesome than Ditko + Conservatism?
In general, I’ve never been crazy about Ditko’s style, except that I think his unique look served Doctor Strange extremely well.
