THE AVENGERS
While Ditko has touched virtually every character in the Marvel Universe to be an
Avenger, it is great fun to watch Ditko at work on all of them together. Ditko did
the breakdowns on an Avengers Annual in 1986 (#15), but one of my fondest Ditko
memories comes from the picture shown here. It is the cover from Avengers Annual #13 ('84)
and featured Ditko drawing a great line-up of Avengers all-stars in confrontation
with The Hulk. John Byrne did the inks, and he blended his style with Ditko's very well.
Vaguely reminds me of when Ditko would ink Kirby, in terms of one artist meshing with
another, instead of over-inking the penciler to the point of where it doesn't even look
like the penciler anymore.
