Description

From the master storyteller who co-created Spider-Man and Dr. Strange comes an all-new collection of visually brilliant and philosophically controversial stories and vignettes. Along with Jack Kirby, Ditko defined Silver Age comics, and Steve Ditko’s Strange Avenging Tales is the most personal and expressive work of his career, introducing readers to: “The Baffler,” Ditko’s newest and most enigmatic hero; “The Spoilers File,” a series of vignettes about petty crime and moral corruption; “In Due Time,” a noir-ish thriller about a young thief’s race against the clock; “Clyde and Claude,” a look at split personality disorder; and much more. Several ofthese stories have been done in Ditko’s stylish and fan-favorite wash technique, perfected and popularized in the Warren magazines of the late ’60s and early ’70s, but one that Ditko has rarely returned to in recent years. Speak for yourself and not for reality, and read Steve Ditko’s Strange Avenging Tales! Designed and cover colored by Marc Arsenault.
