The streak of monthly comicbook meet-up events continued last week, as myself and some other fervent fans of comics met up at Gravity to watch a documentary about Steve Ditko – the co-creator of Spider-Man, and famous recluse. Didn’t take any photos at this event, but trust me – we had a great time! We watched the documentary “In Search Of Steve Ditko“, and played a Jeopardy-style trivia contest that Don put together. It was pretty neat watching the docu, and realizing what a far-reaching effect Ditko had on other creators. We also learned a fair amount about his philosophy and views on the world – he’s an interesting character, that’s certain!
Our February event is going to be a LOT of fun. Attendees will be invited to bring their four favorite comics (individual issues or trade-paperbacks), and then will get 10-15 minutes to explain why those books are so great, and why more people should read them!
