創造漫威漫畫(Marvel Comics)人氣英雄「蜘蛛人」與「奇異博士」的漫畫家迪特科(Steve Ditko)於紐約曼哈頓的住宅過世,享耆壽90歲。據BBC報導,警方6月29日發現他在家中沒有了生命跡象。廣大粉絲與英國著名科幻作家尼爾.蓋曼(Neil Gaiman)等均表達哀悼之情。
迪特科於1962年與「漫威之父」史丹.李(Stan Lee)共同將本名爲彼得.帕克(Peter Parker)的「蜘蛛人」介紹給世人。隨着「奇異博士」等超級英雄出現,迪特科逐漸成名。報導指出,「一位擁有蜘蛛超能力的青少年英雄人物」是史丹.李的構想,不過蜘蛛人著名的紅、藍裝束還有配戴在手腕上的發射器則是迪特科所創造。
Steve Ditko was more than just an artist & a writer, he was a hero. He inspired the world with his work, helping create one of the greatest superheroes ever made, and quite possibly, the greatest fictional character of all time. I'll miss you Steve, thank you for everything... pic.twitter.com/QFwmkN2ZJn
Steve Ditko was true to his own ideals. He saw things his own way, and he gave us ways of seeing that were unique. Often copied. Never equalled. I know I'm a different person because he was in the world. pic.twitter.com/2GFSA86Btj
迪特科於1966年離開漫威,併到DC漫畫公司(DC Comics)任職,期間創造了「爬行者」(The Creeper)、「戰鷹與白鴿」(Hawk & Dove)等角色。據說,迪特科是與史丹.李發生爭執後才選擇離開。不過,他還是決定於1979年回到漫威。
迪特科於1990年進入傑克.科比(Jack Kirby)名人堂,也於1994年獲選艾斯納獎(Will Eisner Award)名人堂。此外,英國知名主持人強納森.羅斯(Jonathan Ross)形容,迪特科是「史上最偉大的漫畫藝術家和創造者」。
