We Were In Search Of Steve Ditko...
At The 2008 SDCC Comic Con International! Saturday night, July 26th 2008, was the night that the However before that happened, I wanted to see the documentary 'In Search of Steve Ditko' that was being held in Room 5AB. Why? Because earlier 'googling' of it showed that it had been a documentary shown on the BBC, but that there wasn't any DVD out for rental or purchase! So, even though it took a while for the host to set up his copy of the broadcast to work on the Convention Centers equipment, Tina and I both felt it was well worth the wait! The program ran from 7:00-8:40 although the documentary is only approxiamtely an hour in length. The host was author Blake Bell, who wrote "Strange & Stranger: The World of Steve Ditko". He hosted a showing of the documentary In Search of Steve Ditko that was narrated by UK television star Jonathan Ross. The documentary featured such comics legends Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, and Stan Lee, who discussed, each in their own fashion, Ditko's work and career. At the same time we as an audience follow along Ross' journey to find Steve Ditko when he travels to New York City! Tina, who is not a Steve Ditko fanatic, was also held fascinated by the documentary, and didn't want to leave! Suffice to say, if Blake Bell gives a showing at a comic con near you, make it a 'must see' program! Seriously! It is NOT a dry documentary, and it is an hour well spent on this subject! BTW, We also have an ongoing Comic Con and Pop Culture convention here at Make It So Marketing, what with our daily blog posts and listings of items for sale!
