Ditko-Kirby Group

This comment was rejected by the Ditko-Kirby Yahoo Group. So I thought I'd post it here.

"Gods. It's so obvious that Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko were totally raped when it comes to who created the characters. Stan Lee gets the credit and the money and the fame, while the folk who actually created these wonderful characters and wonderful books got nothing beyond a page rate and the adoration of the fans they left in their wakes."

Sad how no-talent rip-offs can walk away with the credit and cowards are afraid to state this simple fact. Alas.

For some startling truths, check out Tales To Astonish by Ronin Ro. It pulls from interviews old and new and tells the tale of Jack's life and his career with Timely, Marvel, Dc, Stan Lee and Joe Simon.

Great, great book
