nani?

Showcase Blue Beetle.

There's a bunch of obvious shitting on objectivism and Ditko's sobriety in there.

Quite a recent one.

Just look it up.

Well, considering how hard Ditko ridiculed anyone and everyone who didn't share his philosophy, that seems only fair.

There's been a movement recently to demonise Ditko based on his beliefs/politics. I saw this video youtu.be/Tu9SA3wMNv8 from someone I used to like. I didn't watch the whole thing, but from what I can gleam from the comments and skimming through the video, his argument is that "Ditko's Spider-Man was bad because Ditko was a sad lonely objectivist who didn't want to do anything for anyone else and objectivism is BAD." This despite the fact that Spider-Man was always about helping people despite it rarely paying off for him, even in the early days
It's even worse that people do this because Ditko was very adamantly against this idea of focusing on the artist as a person and it's exactly the reason why he was so reclusive:
>"When I do a job, it's not my personality that I'm offering the readers but my artwork. It's not what I'm like that counts; it's what I did and how well it was done. I produce a product, a comic art story. Steve Ditko is the brand name."
But sadly it seems the artist is more important than the art these days

>YT profile pic is bearded numale who can't keep his mouth closed
Exactly what I expected.

>I didn't watch the whole thing, but

You want me to spend an hour of my life on that?
I already know the many problems with objectivism and I know about Steve Ditko, but I don't think they're outright evil or stupid. So I don't need to sit there for an hour while some guy tells me about how bad and horrible Ditko was as a person and therefore I shouldn't like his defining work because art isn't important any more
