Tom Troy was unjustly framed for a crime, got disbarred, and spent his time trying to clear himself and also earn a living.<BR/><BR/>In real life, Archie's publisher got wind of the story, and said, "We can't have a disbarred lawyer as a hero!" and fired Ditko, whose explanations fell on deaf ears.<BR/><BR/>The next issue (sans Ditko), one of the other Archie superheroes helped clear the Fly in the first 2 pages of the story. The explantion didn't even make sense!<BR/><BR/>Too bad they lost Ditko. I remember a villain called "The Crooked Man", who dressed really wacky. Even had a shoe on one of his hands, and a glove on one of his feet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
