Ditko (1927-2018) never sued Marvel when he as alive because he had weird Randian (as in Ayn Rand) hangups. Fortunately his estate isn't so shackled by mind-forged manacles.

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 …

Interesting point from Neil Gaiman on this (but also check my response). Kirby had a surviving spouse to bring suit; Ditko doesn't.https://twitter.com/neilhimself/status/1441209970704281605 …
