I deleted this because I didn't want to cause confusion. Ditko estate is making a termination of grant, which will force Marvel to either counter-sue or (more likely) settle. Which means Ditko estate will get $$ for Spider-Man.https://twitter.com/KurtBusiek/status/1441187617131749380 …

Further news: Steve Ditko estate filing grant of termination for Dr. Strange (which, to be honest, Ditko 100% created) as well as Spider-Man.https://twitter.com/bobh1970/status/1441190889611726848 …
