25. Ditko is still alive, 89 years old, and in a position to sue Marvel over Spider-Man and Dr. Strange. I don't think he'll do it though.

26. Randian pseudo-logic has helped Steve Ditko reconcile himself to his fate. He made a deal, did the job. No need to revisit past.

27. More Randian pseudo-logic. A deal is a deal. You don't go back & use the law to renegotiate.Either you live by your word & you are false

28. More than that, Ditko has the Randian amour propre: he's the true creator, Rourke & Galt, who turns back on corrupt society.

29. It's entirely possible that becoming a Randian will cost Ditko what he could earn in lawsuit: between $50 million & $100 million.

30. In conclusion: listen to me kids: don't read Ayn fucking Rand. Or at the very least, don't take her seriously.

31. A further point: Ditko has made it clear he wants to be recognized as co-creator of Spider-Man even as he makes no moves to sue Marvel.

Oh, I could do a number on Stan Lee. One of the biggest frauds in American culture.
