@goodmanbeaver Ditko & Katchor both interested in urban decay, relics of earlier times (i.e. water towers on top of buildings)

@HeerJeet something's shared too in their figure drawing (stiff, mannerist poses; 'masculine' women), and often abstract essayistic approach -
@goodmanbeaver My sense is Katchor was influenced by the 1960s Ditko before the essayistic approach took hold. - Show replies
