I won't even attempt to summarize, since there are so many points made by Steve Ditko in
this essay about the editorial urge to tamper, alter, and modify.
Read it for yourself and get a further glimpse into Ditko's very strong feelings regarding heroism, values, and creativity.
Ditko's comments summarize much of what I've grown to despise about the Quesada era at Marvel. I want to still love these characters, but they've made me shy away from it. The Marvel books I still enjoy are the ones with the seemingly least involvement by JQ.
