Steve Ditko

The name or term "Steve" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Steve (disambiguation).

Yes, this is a picture of Steve Ditko from his high school yearbook, why do you ask?

Steve Ditko (November 2, 1927 - June 29, 2018) was an American artist who worked on several Transformers coloring books in the 1980s. He's apparently also famous for some comic book or something. But seriously, can that possibly compare to having drawn Gears holding an elephant over his head?

Also, he hated Vince Colletta.

Notes

• Coincidentally enough, Ditko also drew a pair of Challenge of the GoBots storybooks in the 1980s.
• Sadly, none of Ditko's Transformers work involved men in dapper business suits beating up people while quoting Ayn Rand. We are all the sadder for it.
• Of course, had he seen the picture on this page, he probably would have come after us in a business suit and giant metal gloves.
