In the third installment of the Steve Ditko career retrospective, Ditko goes back to Marvel Comics to work on Machine Man and The Micronauts. He also works with Pacific Comics, Eclipse Comics, Dark Horse and Fantagraphics. all for a very limited time.
In the late 1990′s and up until today, Ditko, along with Robin Snyder, has put out a lot of self-published work including his own collected editions of Mr. A, The Mocker, The Missing Man and Static as well as original works and essays. He has also published several classic works in very affordable paperbacks that can be found at his own website and at Discount Comic Book Service.
Lastly, I’m giving away three Steve Ditko books to one luckly listener! Listen to find out how you can win Strange Suspense The Steve Ditko Archives Vol 1 HC, Strange & Stranger The World of Steve Ditko HC both by Blake Bell and The Art of Ditko HC by Craig Yoe – a $110 value! Thanks to Fantagraphics and IDW for supplying the books.
All this including the Glyph Award Best Reprint Collection nominees, the Eisner Hall of Fame nominees, an e-mail regarding sold out and very high priced Legion of Superheroes Archives Volume 8 and the New Releases of the Week.

To correct a misapprehension, the http://ditko.blogspot.com/ site is not “[Ditko's] own website”, it’s an independently operated fan site not approved by or affiliated with Ditko. His co-publisher Robin Snyder does generously provide information on the availability of their publications for the page.
Thanks for the correction.

Great podcast, Chris.
Ditko’s self-published work is really good. I recently picked up his Mr. A collection and enjoyed it tremendously.
Also, if you like his 1970s Charlton work, Steve Ditko’s 160-page Charlton Package is a must-have. This collection reprints 20 of Ditko’s Charlton ghost stories from titles like Haunted, Ghost Manor and The Many Ghosts of Dr. Graves. The reproduction quality is excellent for this black-and-white volume.
